[0001] This document relates to the field of electrostatic detection technology, and in particular to a device and method for testing the electrostatic charge of materials in a plasma environment. Background Technology

[0002] When an aircraft travels at high speeds, due to viscosity and shock waves, air molecules near the aircraft's surface ionize due to intense thermal motion, forming ionized gas (plasma). This ionized gas adheres to the area around the aircraft, creating a plasma environment. The plasma environment contains a large number of particles, including neutral molecules and charged free particles, among which are free ions and free electrons. This plasma environment can generate static electricity on the aircraft's surface, affecting flight safety.
