- FEEP Fed Emission Electric Propulsion
- thrusters are characterized by a great dynamic and are proposed for missions requiring a very precise relative positioning such as for example the LISA mission (Laser Interference Space Antenna), or a compensation of drag and external disturbances, such as for example the mission MICROSCOPE, whose object was to verify the principle of equivalence of general relativity.
- LISA mission Laser Interference Space Antenna
- mission MICROSCOPE whose object was to verify the principle of equivalence of general relativity.
- FIGS. 2 to 4 show an example of such a known linear emitter.
- the linear transmitter 10 comprises first and second superimposed portions 11, 12 which delimit between them a reservoir 16 (formed for example in the lower part 12) which is in communication with a linear slot 17 which opens out through a linear orifice extending over the entire width of the slot 17.
- the superimposed portions 11 and 12 are joined by connecting means such as M2 screws passing through orifices 18 formed in the two parts 11 and 12.
- the slot 17, which has a thickness of 1.5 microns, is obtained by vacuum deposition on the part 11, through a mask, a shim 19 for example pure nickel.
- the wedge 19 U-shaped extends on a rear branch and two lateral branches located on either side of the slot 17.
- the minimum slot width is guaranteed by nickel pads 15 deposited on the part li through the mask ( Figure 3).
- FIG. 4 is a sectional view showing the cooperation of the transmitter 10 with an accelerating electrode 20 brought to a potential of -500 to -5 000 V, which makes it possible to establish an intense electric field on the tip of the transmitter 10 whose potential is from +5000 to +10 000 V.
- the liquid for example cesium
- the liquid is introduced through a chimney 13 into the tank 16 and then expelled through the slot 17.
- Operation requires perfect wetting by the liquid. This requires vacuum curing which can be obtained by a heating resistor (up to a temperature of about 200 ° C.). After cooling, cesium or other liquid is introduced into the emitter.
- planar emitters such as that of FIGS. 2 to 4, with a slot length exceeding 70 mm, with a straightness and flatness of less than 1 micrometer, and a surface state of 0.05 ⁇ m rms. or better.
- the linear emitter technology makes it easy to obtain thrusts less than 1 mN, but becomes more delicate for higher thrusts, of the order of 5 to 10 mN for example.
- a high thrust is necessary for example to perform the drag compensation of satellites in low orbit or to perform planetary missions at high speed increments (more than 15 km / s).
- the invention aims to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks, and in particular to make it possible to implement ionic thrusters having a thrust greater than 1 mN, typically of the order of 5 to 10 mN, while allowing a simplified and reliable manufacture, guaranteeing a great precision of realization.
- the invention also aims at producing a transmitter capable of operating both on the ground in the horizontal or vertical firing position and in the space in microgravity.

- the transmitter is characterized in that the exit orifice of the slot constitutes a circular orifice whose radius is between 5 and 50 mm and which is delimited by external and internal tips constituted by ends of the external and internal parts and whose alignment is adjustable by a sealing wedge interposed between bearing surfaces of the first and second parts which extend perpendicularly to the axis of symmetry of said first and second parts.
- the conical surface of the inner face of the outer portion has three conical portions of the same slope but having progressive conical transitions between them, so as to define said capillary supply channel, said inner reservoir and said slot.
- the transmitter further comprises a feed channel with a diameter of between 1 and 2 millimeters formed in the second part and opening into the internal reservoir to feed it from an external fluid source.
- the particular structure recommended for the circular slot transmitter allows the precise realization of a circular slot of for example 1.5 micrometer over a diameter of 30 to 100 mm thanks to the geometry that allows self-centering and provides a possibility of adjustment, so as to obtain a precision that could not be obtained by simple machining.
- the invention also relates to the application of the transmitter to a field emission thruster or to colloids, the transmitter being mounted in the vicinity of an accelerating electrode structure, itself surrounded by a screen connected to ground , isolation pads being interposed between the emitter and the accelerator electrode structure, and between the accelerator electrode structure and the screen connected to ground.

- the accelerator electrode structure 200 is surrounded by a screen 300 connected to ground. Insulation pads 401, 402 are interposed between the emitter 100 and the accelerator electrode structure 200, as well as between the accelerator electrode structure 200 and the screen 300 connected to ground.
- the base plate 190 of the inner part 120 comprises slots 400 (FIG. 6) to ensure the passage of the high voltage insulation pads, such as the pad 401, of the emitter 100 as well as the pipes 185 (FIG. 5). supplying the internal reservoir with liquid, such as cesium.
- the screen 300 connected to ground prevents interactions between the external plasma created at the outlet of the orifice 171 of the circular slot delimited between the parts 110 and 120, and the electrodes under tension 200.
- the external plasma results from the operation of the hollow cathode neutraliser located outside the screen in the vicinity of the outlet orifice 171 of the circular slot of the transmitter 100.
- the accelerator electrode 200 and the screen 300 have annular openings 201, 301 opposite the circular outlet orifice 171 of the slot of the transmitter 100 (FIG. 7).
- a heating resistor 195 (FIGS. 5 and 7) may be disposed in the vicinity of the inner part 120, under the base 190, at the the vicinity of the liquid supply pipes 185 to provide a stoving of the emitter, which is then cooled, and then maintaining in the liquid state in the emitter itself composed of the parts 110 and 120.
- the shoulder formed by the base 190 of the inner part 120 may have a reduced height and a separate plate 191 may be superimposed on this base 190 (variant shown on the right side of Figure 6).
- the potential of the accelerating electrode 200 is very negative (-1000 V to -5000 V) and attracts the plasma ions.
- the accelerating electrode 200 is effectively protected from an excessive current of ions due to the ionospheric plasma and the neutralizer thanks to the screen 300 which in particular surrounds the central part of the accelerating electrode 200 inside the transmitter.
- FIG. 1 reveals more details than FIGS. 5 to 7 which are simplified overall views.
- the inner part 120 has an inner face 121 whose surface state is not critical and an outer face 122 made by precision machining and polished, having conical portions with a single slope determined between 5 and 8 °.
- the outer part 110 has a polished outer face 111 and an inner face 112 made by precision machining and having ionic portions with a single slope determined between 5 and 8 °.
- the inner face 112 of the outer part 110 and the outer face 122 of the inner part 120 delimit an annular internal reservoir 160 and an annular slot 170 opening through a circular orifice 171.
- Metal studs 123, 124, 125 are deposited under vacuum, for example by sputtering, on the part of the outer face 122 of the inner part 120, to determine the width of the slot 170.
- the deposit Vacuum pads can be made using a split conical mask. When mounting the two conical parts the sliding of the pads on the opposite surface is for example only 160 microns for a clamping of 16 microns and a slope of 10% (6 °).
- the pads can be obtained by direct machining, with a tool lift of 1 to 2 microns.
- Nozzles 116, 126 constituted by the ends of the outer and inner parts 110, 120 and delimiting the circular outlet orifice 171 can be aligned to within 1 micrometer for outlet port radii 171 which can be between 5 and 50 mm .
- Vertical alignment of the beaks 116, 126 is adjustable by grinding a sealing shim 130 interposed between bearing surfaces 117, 127 of the outer and inner parts 110, 120 which extend perpendicular to the axis of symmetry O of these parts 110, 120.
- the shim 130 is preferably made of nickel and also seals between the parts 110 and 120 to prevent leakage of liquid to the outside at the lower part of the outer part 110.
- the closure between the parts 110 and 120 is provided by mechanical connection means such as screws or solder.
- mechanical connection means such as screws or solder.
- the mechanical connection between the parts 110 and 120 enclosing the shim 130 is provided preferably by a nut 140 fine pitch.
- the internal face 112 of the outer part 110 has three conical sections 112A, 112B, 112C of the same slope but not aligned and joined together by progressive conical transitions in order to prevent the meniscus liquid is blocked at a sharp variation of the diameter, while the outer face 122 of the inner part 120 has in its upper part a single conical surface to define on the one hand the inner tank 160, in cooperation with the section 112A and on the other hand, the upper portion provided with pads 123 to 125, the annular slot 170 in cooperation with the section 112C.
- Intermediate section 112B and the corresponding slope of face 122 define a capillary supply channel 161 of diameter between 10 and 15 micrometers, which is interposed between internal reservoir 160 and slot 170 to allow a capillary rise of the liquid since the internal tank 160 to the narrow slot 170, regardless of the position of the transmitter.
- the capillary supply channel 161 facilitates in all cases the feeding of the narrow slot 170 and also allows a shot in particular with a horizontal axis.
- the small volume 160 delimited by the lower section 112A of the conical face 112 and the conical face 122 may for example correspond to a mean radius difference of the section 112A and the conical face 122 of the order of 1.5 to 2 mm and allows both to ensure a degassing of the transmitter and to constitute a buffer tank inside the transmitter for a liquid such as cesium intended to be propelled by the orifice 171.
- the inner part 120 can present between the lower surface of its base 190 and the orifice 171 a height H for example between 20 and 30 mm.
- the internal reservoir 160 can be fed from the external pipes 185 (FIG. 5) through a bore 150, for example of diameter between 1 and 2 millimeters, made in the base 190 of the inner part 120.
- the slopes of the different sections 112A, 112B, are the slopes of the different sections 112A, 112B,
- the inner part 120 is preferably designed to be much more rigid than the outer part 110. It can be seen, for example, in FIG. 1 that the internal part 120 is more solid than the complementary part 110.
- the inner and outer parts 120, 110 may be made for example of a nickel superalloy, or a hardened stainless steel.
- the surfaces to be machined 112, 122 must be made on a hard substrate.
- a nickel superalloy such as that known under the name INCONEL 718, or a hardened stainless steel coated with a layer of chemical nickel are thus well suited materials for constituting the parts 110, 120.
- the polished faces of the parts 110, 120 are preferably obtained by direct diamond machining on a precision machine, according to the technique used for the realization of metal mirrors.
- the aforementioned polished zones and in particular the surfaces delimiting the slot 170 and the external surface subjected to the electric field must preferably have a polish of 0.025 ⁇ m rms.
- the straightness of the surfaces facing the slot 170 and at the beaks 116, 126 must be very good. On the other hand, defects in shape are tolerable on the outer surface 111, because on this surface the role of the polish is to avoid local discharges by micro-tips.
- the non-critical areas of the surfaces of the parts 110 and 120 may have a surface state of the order of 0.2 micrometer.
- the transmitter structure according to the invention makes it possible to obtain a circular slot 170 of small width, for example preferably between 1 and 1.8 micrometer, and an alignment of the beakers 116, 126 to within 1 micrometer, even for a slot 170 whose outlet orifice 171 has a radius R between 15 and 50 mm. This is made possible by the fact that the geometry of the transmitter allows for self-centering and adjustment capability, so that it is no longer necessary to obtain the required accuracy by means of machining operations alone.
- the invention provides a simplification of the construction of the transmitter 100 because for mounting the outer part 110 on the inner part 120 it is easier to give a conical slope to the contact surface 112 than to mount by differential expansion.
- the mounting on cones used to build the transmitter 100 also allows several disassemblies which allows to align the nozzles 116, 126 by rotation of the outer part 110, to remedy the lack of parallelism of the beaks 116, 126 vis-à-vis the reference faces, and also by grinding the shim 130 located in the lower part of the outer part 110, to compensate for the difference in height between the outer and inner parts 110, 120.
- the degassing of the transmitter 100 may be provided by the conductance of the slot 170 and a feeding tube in liquid, similar to the chimney 13 of the linear transmitter of FIG 4, in a configuration for testing the floor.
- the degassing can be obtained by a dedicated orifice or by a "getter” degassing material incorporated in the cavity 160, 161 formed between the outer and inner parts 110, 120 and serving for the supply of Slot liquid 170.
- the term “getter” is used to refer to a set of reactive metals used in vacuum tubes to improve vacuum.
