Measurement of hole mobility in dielectric liquids

Breakdown phenomena of dielectric liquids for a needle/plane electrode have been investigated. It was found that the hole greatly influenced the breakdown of dielectric liquids. The authors report hole production and measurement of hole mobility in dielectric liquids. The electron and hole were injected from a NESA glass electrode into cyclohexane under KrF excimer laser irradiation. The NESA was coated with ITO (indium tin oxide). An analysis of electron and hole mobility is presented.
