Abstract

The invention discloses a coaxial anode insulating pulse plasma thruster and relates to the technical field of microsatellite thrusters. The coaxial anode insulating pulse plasma thruster comprises acathode, an anode and an insulating barrel sleeving the cathode, wherein the cathode is cylindrical, a discharge end is arranged at the front end of the cathode, the anode is of a cylindrical structure fixed to the outer wall of the insulating barrel, and the inner wall of the anode is in contact with the outer wall of the insulating barrel; an insulating layer wraps the outer surface of the anode; axes of the cathode, the anode and the insulating barrel are superposed; the cylindrical end of the cathode is electrically connected to a negative high voltage terminal of an external circuit; andthe anode is grounded. The anode is wrapped by means of the insulating barrel and the insulating layer, so that a passage where plasmas move toward the anode is blocked, and more plasmas are ejected axially along the insulating barrel, and therefore, the density of a plasma jet is improved. By arranging the insulating barrel, the plasmas under the action of hump potential are ejected axially alongthe insulating barrel to form the plasma jet which is high in energy and good in directionality.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of micro-satellite thrusters, in particular to a coaxial anode-insulated pulse plasma thruster. Background technique [0002] Vacuum gap discharge can generate high-energy, high-density metal ion plasma. The generated plasma can be applied to ion implantation technology to change the surface properties of materials; it can also be applied to pulsed plasma thrusters to provide power for attitude adjustment of micro-satellites. [0003] In the vacuum gap discharge, the electrons collide with the metal vapor from the cathode point under the action of field emission to generate metal ions and electrons. Then, the electrons move to the anode, and the metal ions will gather near the cathode, thereby forming a positive higher space potential (hump potential) near the cathode. Under the effect of hump potential, metal ions drag electrons to move in all directions. [0004] The traditional vacuum gap discharge pla...
