This work deals with investigations of thermal plasma of electric arc discharge between sintered composite Cu-Cr electrodes, which can be used in electrical contacts of vacuum circuit breakers. Breaking arcs between composite Cu-Cr as well as single-component copper electrodes were used to study the electrical properties, plasma optical emission and electrodes surface modification behavior. In particular, the temporal evolution of plasma emission spectra of electric breaking arcs in air atmosphere was investigated by Optical Emission Spectroscopy (OES). Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) with Energy-dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDXS) were applied to analyze the cross-section of working layer of electrodes surface modified by the heat flux from the discharge.

In this study, optical fiber probes were fabricated by combination of electric arc discharge and chemical etching techniques. Size of tips diameters fabricated using different etching solutions were observed. When the optical fibers were pulled and heated by the electric arc discharge using a fusion splicer, fiber tips with few microns in diameter were obtained. To minimize the tips diameter, the pulled fiber probes were etched vertically for 10 minutes using two different etching solutions namely 49% HF and HF buffer solution (49% HF and 40% NH4F) with ratio of 2:1. A thick overlayer was added on top of the HF solution to prevent dangerous vapors escape to the environment. When the tapered part of the pulled fiber (FP1) was dipped into 49% HF solution, the diameter of tip was slightly decreased from 4.41μm to 1.31μm with etching rate of 5.17x10-3 μms-1. When the pulled fiber (FP2) was etched into HF buffer solution, the etching rate was increased up to 52.35% with the etching rate of 10.85x10-3μms-1. The tip diameter was reduced from 7.01μm to 468.9 nm in diameter. Combination of “heat and pull” technique with chemical etching by using HF buffer solution produced fiber probe with small tip diameter.

This work is devoted to spectroscopy peculiarities of electric arc discharge plasma with iron vapours. The solution of the main issue of optical emission spectroscopy, namely, selection of iron spectral lines, to study the parameters of non-uniform and non-steady-state plasma source, was considered within this paper. Specifically, the Boltzmann plots technique was used for detailed analysing of application possibility of Fe I spectral lines as well as for determination of plasma temperature. The spatial profiles of selected spectral line emission intensities were used to measure the radial distributions of plasma temperature of free-burning arc discharge between consumable electrodes at 3.5 A.
