Characteristics of Energetic Ions Emitted from Hollow Cathodes
The behavior of a hollow cathode operated within an ion thruster discharge chamber is characterized using a remotely located, charged-particle analyzer. A very complex structure of the ion energy distribution function is revealed that is in general agreement with previous observations from many earlier works. Observations, which are in general agreement with the literature, include the measurem...
متن کاملFast Starting Hollow Cathodes for Sounding Rocket-based Tether Experiments
Data are presented on cathode temperature profiles, electron emission profiles under no-flow conditions, and timed starting tests with gas flow. Correlations between the temporal behavior of the noflow emission current and the starting time are made, and a model is presented of the barium/bariumoxide generation and surface diffusion processes that describe the electron emission profile and star...
متن کاملDevelopment of Hollow Cathodes for Space Electric Propulsion at Sitael
Hollow cathodes are electron sources used for the gas ionization and the beam neutralization in both ion and Hall effect thrusters (HETs). A reduction of power and propellant consumption from the cathode is particularly needed in small satellite applications, where power and mass budgets are inherently limited. Concurrently, the interest in high-power HETs is increasingly fostered for a number ...
متن کاملScanning optical pyrometer for measuring temperatures in hollow cathodes.
Life-limiting processes in hollow cathodes are determined largely by the temperature of the electron emitter. To support cathode life assessment, a noncontact temperature measurement technique which employs a stepper motor-driven fiber optic probe was developed. The probe is driven inside the hollow cathode and collects light radiated by the hot interior surface of the emitter. Ratio pyrometry ...
متن کاملCarbon coated hollow Na2FePO4F spheres for Na-ion battery cathodes
Carbon coated porous hollow Na2FePO4F (C/Na2FePO4F) spheres with 500 nm diameter and 80 nm wall thickness are synthesized by a one-step template-free ultrasonic spray pyrolysis process using sucrose as the carbon source. Nano-sized porous hollow C/Na2FePO4F spheres allow electrolyte to penetrate into the hollow structure, and thus the electrochemical reaction can take place on both the outside ...
