exposure system consisted of a square-shaped Helmholtz coil, which was wound over a Teflon frame of dimension 35 x 35 x 20 cm (l x b x h); an uninterrupted power supply (UPS) provided less than 1% output voltage variation ensuring stable magnetic field generation; a step down transformer was used to reduce voltage down to 15 V, reducing the electric field component; the current source (step down transformer, rheostat etc.) was shielded by mild steel sheet enclosures
