Abstract: Langmuir probes are diagnostic tools used to determine electron temperature, number density, and plasma potential. Irving Langmuir first used an electrostatic probe in the 1920s to find these characteristics in ionized gases. Single, double, and triple Langmuir probes are commonly used in plasma diagnostics because of their relative simplicity. In the single probe, a swept voltage is applied between the probe tip and circuit common to acquire a waveform showing the collected current as a func…
