摘要: The present invention is directed to a gas line electron beam exciter, excitation system and method for exciting using an exciter. exciter generally comprises variable density source generating cloud of electrons in chamber energy extractor accelerating from the as into effluent stream fluorescing species effluent. variably controlled by adjusting power applied source. reside at reference electrical potential chamber, typically near ground potential. across extractor, which energizes through extraction hole toward extractor. greater difference between source, higher imparted beam. can be adjusted independently beam, thereby altering without changing level
