LIF Diagnostics of Molecular Propellants: A Study of N 2 + in a Hidden Anode Plasma Source
Conference-paper 2026
Molecular propellants are increasingly relevant for future electric propulsion systems, yet quantitative plasma diagnostics for these species remain underdeveloped. This contribution presents further advances in laser–induced fluorescence (LIF) on N2+ in a plasma–thruster–relevant device, using a Hidden Anode Plasma Contactor as a testbed. An improved excitation scheme based on the ��2Σ+�� → ��2Σ+…
