Abstract
A heated emissive probe is a smart diagnostic tool for acquisition of the plasma potential in the discharge and in the plume of a Hall thruster. However, measurements of high-frequency oscillations of the potential require a specific electrical circuit with a low <inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$RC$ </tex-math></inline-formula> time constant. We developed and tested an emissive probe system with a cutoff frequency of 1 MHz. Details about the low-pass filter design as well as first experimental outcomes obtained in the plume of a 200 W permanent magnet Hall thruster are given in this paper.
