Indium–Tin Oxide–Coated Glass for Passive Ion Collection on Small-Scale Spacecraft

A small-scale spacecraft has limited resources and requires innovative solutions to enable capabilities similar to those of a larger spacecraft. In particular, a small-scale spacecraft has a limited outer surface area, which is typically used for body-mounted solar panels, yet may be required for passive ion collection when in situ plasma measurements are conducted. We present the results of groun...
