For switching high voltages, high frequencies and at high numbers of switching actuations, a gasdischarge structure is provided which is composed of a series circuit of two or more individual arresters which comprise electrodes of copper and which are filled with gas which is at least partially composed of hydrogen.
a gas in said gasdischarge gap which is partially composed of hydrogen with the hydrogen constituent lying between 5 vol.
The gasdischarge structure of claim 1, wherein: said activation compound carried on said end faces of said electrodes comprises sodium silicate and nickel.
Gasdischarge lamps are a family of artificial light sources that generate light by sending an electric current through noble gas (mixture)(Argon, Neon, Krypton and Xenon, or mixtures of these gases).
In operation the gas is ionized, and free electrons, accelarated by the electrical field in the tube, collide with gas and metal atoms.
Gasdischarge lamps offer long life and high light efficiency, but are more complicated to manufacture, and they require electronics to provide the correct current flow through the gas.
