Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a spark gap (104) device that includes a first electrode (102) having a first surface and a second electrode (106) having a second surface offset from and facing the first surface. The spark gap device also includes a cantilevered component (100) coupled to the first electrode that is configured to generate a field emission, a corona discharge or both, to emit light toward at least the first surface such that photons are incident on the first surface and cause electron emission from the first surface. The spark gap device may not include a radioactive component. 本公开的实施例涉及一种火花间隙(104)装置，其包括具有第一表面的第一电极(102)和具有第二表面的第二电极(106)，第二表面相对于第一表面偏移且面向第一表面。火花间隙装置还包括联接到第一电极的悬臂式构件(100)，悬臂式构件构造成生成场发射、电晕放电或两者，以朝向至少第一表面发射光，使得光子入射在第一表面上，并且引起从第一表面的电子发射。火花间隙装置可不包括放射性组分。
