Abstract
A charge density distribution scanning system is fabricated using an electrostatic probe, which utilizes DC voltage feedback principle to nullify the electric field between the probe and charged insulator surface. A two-layer structure pipe is designed to lower the surface potential after discharge. In this way, the surface potential distribution caused by the residual charge of leader discharge under the impulse application voltage up to 40 kV can be measured. In this Letter, the residual surface charge density distribution under 23.5 kV application voltage is given, and the numerical characteristics of residual charge in the leader channel and streamer channel are analyzed.

High resolution measurements of surface charge densities on insulator surfaces

TL;DR: The uses and limitations of the electrostatic probe for the measurement of charge densities on insulating surfaces are discussed in this article, where two important limitations have together been overcome: (i) the effects on the probe signal of charges on all points of the surface have been taken into account by means of a matrix inversion procedure; and (ii) a robotic control system has been developed which enables the probe to follow and scan a wide range of axi-symmetric insulator profiles.
