A family of mercury ion thruster modules has been developed which extends the basic design of the Hughes-developed 1-mlb Engineering Model Thruster to accommodate the extended thrust range from 0.5 mlb to 4 mlb. In the subject program, separate Discharge Chamber Modules (DCM's) have been optimized for operation at nominal thrust levels T = 0.5 mlb and 2 mlb; DCM optimization is continuing at thrust level T = 4 mlb. Performance optimization required modification of the beam-extraction system and of discharge-chamber components; however, the cathodes and mechanical structure are unchanged from the Engineering Model design. Performance data on the optimized modules are given.
