Hi Daniil,

some use iron, some use an iron-nickel alloy, I am trying stainless steel. I cannot answer your second question, but do you know Paschen curves? These will give you the ballpark.

Hi Jens,

Thanks for fast answer, the second thing I'm looking for is information about metals used in cathodes and anode, and correlation between size of the electrodes and distances between them.

Thanks in advance,
Daniil.

    Hi,

    it is a Penning mixture of 1% Argon in 99% Neon (of course), but
    you can just as easily work with Neon, only the ignition voltage
    will be a little higher. Typical pressures are around 20 Torr or
    30 mbar.

    Hello, I'm searching for the same book for the same purpose.
    I want to make nixie tube by myself. I have all information about
    the glassblowing process and metal-glass seals,
    but have no information about gas mixtures and pressures.
    So I will appreciate if anyone can help.

    Thanks,
    Daniil.

        I still need G.F. Weston "Cold cathode glow discharge tubes".
