The paper describes the results of investigation of a discharge arising in vacuum on the surface of solid dielectric materials when irradiated by intense (up to 25 MW/cm²) electromagnetic centimeter wave radiation. When the density of the microwave energy flux exceeds some threshold value depending on the target material, a discharge emerges in the vicinity of the surface. Its emergence is associated with the evaporation of the target material and the breakdown of evaporated matter. The thus forming plasma initially has the form of a thin (on the wavelength scale) layer with the electron density of the order of 10[sup 16] cm[sup -3]. It is demonstrated experimentally that effective generation of multiply charged ions occurs in the plasma. The measured energy distribution of ions in expanding plasma agrees with the predicted distribution obtained in solving the problem on quasineutral expansion into vacuum of a localized bunch of collisionless plasma with cold ions.
