New Shield Technology Blocks EMI But Allows Wireless Signaling

Researchers have reportedly developed a new mesh shield that effectively prevents electromagnetic interference (EMI) while also allowing wireless communications.

According to a recent article posted on the website of Phys.Org, a research team at Zhejiang University in China has created a mechanically-flexible silver mesh that is also visibly transparent. When used in conjunction with transparent silicon and polyethylene, the mesh not only provides high EM shielding effectiveness of 26.2 dB in the X band but also good optical transmission at a wide range of wavelengths, including those in the infrared spectrum.

Shielding Effectiveness Test Guide

Just as interference testing requires RF enclosures, isolation systems in turn need their own testing. This document reviews some of the issues and considerations in testing RF enclosures.

Read a paper summarizing the research behind this innovation that was originally published in the Optical Materials Express Journal.
