Abstract :
In ion-electron sources, based on vacuum-arc generators, electrical parameters of plasma generators are related to the shape of the plasma flow and the current density distribution at the target. Plasma-gas dynamic control is performed through formation of the plasma front local parameters. The device efficiency is raised without affecting the electrical parameters
