A new simple emissive probe
A. Siebenförcher, R. Schrittwieser · Review of Scientific Instruments · 1996
We present a novel and very simple method to construct miniature emissive probes. This new technology guarantees a reliable electrical contact between the emissive wire and the copper leads during the lifetime of such a probe and can also be applied to other types of probes. Moreover, the probe can be made especially small so as to minimize the perturbance of the plasma.
