abstract = "We present the results of an experimental study of the DC Stark shift for seven visible NeI
lines in the plane cathode sheath region of an abnormal glow discharge operated in neon with
a small admixture of hydrogen. The electric field (up to 13.4 kV cm−1) in the cathode sheath
region is measured from the π-polarized profile of the H alpha line of hydrogen using the
Stark polarization spectroscopy technique. Within the realized range of the electric field, the
NeI lines exhibit a quadratic Stark effect. The values of coefficients, correlating Stark shift and
electric field strength, were determined, enabling their future use for unknown electric field
strength measurements. Among the studied lines, so far only the Stark effect analysis of the
NeI 511.367 nm line has been reported, in which case our results are in good agreement with
the best fit formula proposed by Jäger and Windholz (1984 Phys. Scr. 29 344) for one out of
three Stark components detected under our experimental conditions.",
