Abstract
In this letter, a new method of energy selective surface (ESS) is presented for adaptive high-power microwave/electromagnetic pulse (HPM/EMP) protection, and a self-actuated ESS is designed with super-dense diode arrays. A prototype of size 35 × 35 cm2 is fabricated to evaluate the performance of ESS, and an experiment under HPM radiation is carried out at 1.3 GHz. Results of measurements show that ESS has an energy low-pass characteristic of adaptive protection.
