Thread: photoelectric effect masless blade

  1. #1

    Default photoelectric effect masless blade

    Has anyone tinkered with the idea of using photoelectric phenomena to create air born plasma?

    first off, what are u talking about, can u explain so a 14 year old like me can understand?

    I DONT KNOW WHAT WE'RE YELLING ABOUT!!....LOUD NOISES!!!

    Why yes i have. Yesterday i put a photoionicaly charged proton generator into a neuotron projector and moved the tri-photon charger beside the nagatively charged quad-elctron power crystal, and BAM! Out came a green photoelectric masless blade.

    I take it your hilt was about a mile in diameter?

    Liek has ne1 evr used ant!mattr to pwr there baldes???!!!!!1111


    Seriously Photon, how would you even go about that? I'm not even sure I know what photoelectic phenomena are.

    ok younglings,
    here is the first lesson

    When UV light makes contact with metal, it produces current. When it makes contact on platinum, it will produce over 6 volts. Plus it will also guide plasma from one electrode to the other in the air. I thought that this could be the a good concept for air plasma. I designed an optic tube that focuses a Luxeon into a 3/4" diameter beam. I used a blue star but blue is only 470nm.Its not quite UV. The deeper the UV light is the more powerful the photoelectric effect is. I installed this tube into my Mara Jade hilt. If only Luxeon would come out with a DEEP UV star between 248nm-395nm.Of course you cant see the UV light that well but you would be able to see the plasma! does that make sense. This is what you want. You want to be able to see the plasma but not the beam guiding it because the beam goes on.The second step would be to create the high voltage chamber. So I thought about platinum electrodes in front of the optic. The electrodes charge small High Voltage captators to 35kv.Then the capacitors charge the short end tube where the UV comes out of. Once the UV hits the 35kv barrel, then plasma is formed

    I thought Plasma could only be created under special conditions, i.e. high temperature, high voltage, in a vacuum, copious amounts of pixie dust, etc...

    If you wanted to convert plain air into plasma I thought you need a powerful laser - and now the obligatory wikipedia link to explain my thought...

    And based on the wiki above, you have the principle backwards. Plasma has very low electrical resistance. So the plasma guides the high voltage to its destination, not the other way around.

    P.A., are you saying you want to ignite plasma in the PolyC? Or out in the open on its own?
