Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some, but not all, embodiments of the present invention. The components of embodiments of the present invention generally described and illustrated in the figures herein may be arranged and designed in a wide variety of different configurations.
Thus, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention, presented in the figures, is not intended to limit the scope of the invention, as claimed, but is merely representative of selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
It should be noted that: like reference numbers and letters refer to like items in the following figures, and thus, once an item is defined in one figure, it need not be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.
In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that if the terms "upper", "lower", "inside", "outside", etc. indicate an orientation or a positional relationship based on that shown in the drawings or that the product of the present invention is used as it is, this is only for convenience of description and simplification of the description, and it does not indicate or imply that the device or the element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed in a specific orientation, and be operated, and thus should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

It should be noted that the features of the embodiments of the present invention may be combined with each other without conflict.
Currently, existing langmuir probes have the following problems:
first, the design lacks deformability, and most of them are fixed structures. When the performance of the electric thruster changes or the measuring position is changed, the measuring precision deviation of the probe is very large, even the probe cannot be measured completely, and the probe with a fixed structure can be used normally only by opening the vacuum chamber to replace the probe, which is very inconvenient;
secondly, when the Langmuir probe changes the extension length, the position needs to be ensured to be unchanged, so that the space precision is ensured during measurement, and the influence on the measurement precision and the flow field interference are reduced. However, in the conventional retractable probe, the probe body is retracted, the probe needs to be moved and the length of the probe needs to be changed (the length of the probe in this embodiment refers to the length of the probe exposed to the plasma environment), and the position of the probe is changed, which affects the measurement accuracy.
Thirdly, the existing Langmuir probe usually connects the probe head with the connecting parts such as a nut, a bolt and a motion motor directly, and electrical contact exists; the nut and the bolt are mainly metal conductive bolts for ensuring the strength, so that the resistance of the probe is large, and the bolt and the nut form resistance voltage division, so that the voltage measurement of the probe is not accurate, and the measurement precision is influenced;
fourthly, the existing probe uses a glass or ceramic thermal shrinkage mode to clamp a probe head, when the extending length of the probe needs to be changed, the probe needs to be completely re-processed and assembled, the consistency of the probe is not guaranteed, and the measurement stability is further influenced;
fifthly, the existing telescopic probe is usually connected with the probe by using a soft metal wire, so that the probe can be ensured to be firmly connected under the premise of normal extension, but the metal wire has a limited service life under the high-temperature working environment and is easy to desolder or break along with the increase of the extension times of the probe.
Based on this, embodiments of the present invention provide a langmuir probe, a langmuir probe detection system, and a langmuir probe detection method, which can change the length of the probe without moving the probe, ensure the accuracy of the position of the probe, ensure spatial accuracy, and improve the accuracy of measurement without interfering with a flow field.
