摘要：

In this paper, the process of back-diffusion in nitrogen is studied by means of Monte Carlo simulations. In particular we analyze the influence of different aspects of back-diffusion in order to simplify the models of plasma displays, low pressure gas breakdown and detectors of high energy particles. The obtained simulation results show that the escape coefficient depends strongly on the reflection coefficient and the initial energy of electrons. It was also found that the back-diffusion range and number of collisions before returning to the cathode in nitrogen are smaller than those in argon for similar conditions. (c) 2008 Elsevier B.V.
