READ ME File For 'Dataset title' Dataset DOI: 10.5258/SOTON/D3429 ReadMe Author: Szymon Dworski, University of Southampton 0000-0003-4787-9289 This dataset supports the thesis entitled Time-of-flight characterisation of alternative propellants for porous Electrospray thrusters AWARDED BY: University of Southampton DATE OF AWARD: 2025 DESCRIPTION OF THE DATA These data contain all the raw data collected during the period of my PhD. They contain Current-Voltage, Retarding Potential Analysis and Time-of-Flight data for seven ionic liquids - EMI-BF4, EMI-FeCl4, EMI-SbF6, [EMI]2-Co(SCN)4, C6(mim)2-[Im]2, C6(mim)2-Co(SCN)4 and (C6mim)3-Dy(SCN)6. The scans of the eleven emitters tested during this period are also included. Furthermore, the code used to analyse the data are also provided in this folder. Finally, the analysed raw data are also included here. This dataset contains: .txt files for: Current-Voltage, Retarding Potential data .csv files for: TOF, emitter height and radius data. .m files for: MATLAB Code used for analysis. Date of data collection: 11/2023 - 4/2024 Information about geographic location of data collection: All collected at the David Fearn Electric Propulsion Laboratory.
