Abstract
A vacuum arc thruster with multi-layer insulation includes a housing, an anode unit and a cathode unit spaced apart from each other in the housing, and an insulator disposed between the anode unit and the cathode unit. The insulator includes a plurality of fuel layers and a plurality of insulating layers. Each insulating layer is located between every two adjacent fuel layers. Accordingly, a multiple-layer design is formed by arranging the fuel layers and the insulating layers which are made of different materials in an alternating manner, thereby attaining the maximum field emission effect, increasing the stability and efficacy of operating the vacuum arc thruster, and prolonging the service life of the thruster.
