Embodiment
To develop simultaneously embodiment below in conjunction with accompanying drawing, describe the present invention.
The invention provides a kind of field structure of ion thruster arc chamber, arc chamber comprises electric discharge locular wall, anode canister, and field structure comprises magnetic pole, pole shoe, permanent magnet.Specifically, as shown in Figure 2, magnetic pole comprises lower magnetic pole 1, consequent pole 2 and upper magnetic pole 3, is loop configuration, and be that what is its cross section in figure, arc chamber is divided into cone section and shell of column two parts by consequent pole 2.Pole shoe is corresponding with magnetic pole, comprises lower pole shoe 4, middle pole shoe 5 and upper pole shoe 6.Form flux loop by pole shoe and permanent magnet between magnetic pole, form ring point cusped magnetic field in arc chamber inside.Feature of the present invention is: the anode canister of arc chamber is placed in cusp field inside; Each magnetic pole all stretches into anode canister inner surface, and electronegative relative to anode canister; The arc chamber negative electrode be installed on lower pole shoe directly stretches into arc chamber inside when front does not have anode canister.
Visible, the present invention makes magnetic pole stretch into arc chamber inside, exceeds anode canister inner surface, makes the magnetic line of force as far as possible away from anode canister, thus as far as possible non-intersect with anode canister.Due to non-intersect electronics would not be caused to move along the magnetic line of force time touch anode canister at infall or near magnetic pole.And the present invention makes magnetic pole electronegative relative to anode canister, therefore, when electronics to move along the magnetic line of force arrive near magnetic pole time, can not get on magnetic pole because of electric field action.So, primary electron can only by collision or turbulent transport diffusion can pass through the magnetic line of force and anode collides and disappears, and improves electronics utilance.
And, because lower magnetic pole stretches into arc chamber inside, make the magnetic field at cathode outlet place stronger, all electronics from negative electrode out, will be more along the magnetic line of force toward border movement, design magnetic field is limited in anode near zone, and most of Working medium gas is in this region by primary electron ionization by collision, and the ion of ionization is distributed in without in field region by free diffusing even action.By optimizing upper magnetic pole length, the most of region near grid is made to be close to field-free region, more be conducive to the even diffusion of ion, improve the uniformity of educt beaming flow, avoid the deterioration of the excessive gate hole focusing power caused of ion concentration near grid axis, cause grid bad stability, gate area utilizes the problems such as insufficient, thus improves discharging efficiency and line glacing flatness.
Below in conjunction with Fig. 2, the details that realizes of the present invention is described in detail.
