 note = {A microplasma thruster has been developed of electrothermal type using azimuthallysymmetric microwave-excited microplasmas. The microplasma source was ～2 mmin diameter and ～10 mm long, being operated at around atmospheric pressures; the micronozzlewas a converging-diverging type, having a throat ～0.2 mm in diameter and ～1 mmlong. Numerical and experimental results with Ar as a working gas demonstrated that thisminiature electrothermal thruster gives a thrust of >1 mN, a specific impulse of ～100 s, anda thrust efficiency of ～10% at a microwave power of <10 W, making it applicable to attitudecontroland station-keeping maneuver for a microspacecraft of <10 kg.},
