Condensation Mitigation In Ionization Sensing

Abstract: An ionization sensor (110) includes a polarizing electrode (111), a signal electrode (117), a first dielectric layer (112) separating the signal electrode from the polarizing electrode and a heating element (114) configured to heat the polarizing electrode (111) and/or the signal electrode (117). A method for ionization sensing includes providing a detection cell and, through a window, illuminating the detection cell with ultraviolet light while heating the detection cell, the window, or both.
