Abstract
The (Ne + H-2) plasma in a hollow cathode glow discharge has been investiga ted. A theoretical description of (Ne + H-2) plasma has been made by consid ering the main elementary processes including the vibrational kinetics. Bas ed on the results obtained from the model an emission method has been devel oped for H- concentration measurement. The results obtained by this emissio n method are compared with those obtained by the photodetachment method.
