Optimization of a Faraday Cup Collimator for Electric Propulsion Device Beam Study: Case of a Hall Thruster
A Faraday cup (FC) is an instrument dedicated to current measurement in beams, jets and plasmas. It consists of a set of polarized electrodes mounted in such a way plasma sheath effect can be neglected, yielding accurate and reliable results. A FC is composed of three main parts, namely a collector...
