PMD E-FIELD SENSOR
(Radiation Hardened)



The PMD (Parallel Mesh Dipole) is mounted on a grounded connecting surface and used to measure the electric field intensity normal to the surface. The sensing plate is a parallel mesh of very fine aluminum wires for maximum transparency to photon radiation and scattered electrons. The PMD is designed to operate in radiation environments as severe as 1013 R/sec. The sensors shown has a flange for mounting to an EMP test canister - a device used to measure radiation intensity and direction by measuring the electromagnetic fields generated inside the canister by the radiation environment. This model has also been built with a thin base plate and with the connector exiting through the bottom. It is mounted directly on a conducting surface like other ground plane sensors. The PMD is a passive device and requires no power.
