Fiber-Optic Sensors for the Study of Spacecraft-Thruster Interactions: Ion Sputtering

The FOCS principle of operation has been verified in a proof-of-principle demonstration. A decrease in transmitted signal strength was observed as the optical fiber cladding thickness decreased during the HF sub aq solution etch. The experimental results obtained in this study simulated the sputteri...
