  • Publication number: 20150042502
    Abstract: The invention relates to a material configured such as to include a plurality of layers, some layers being made of a composite material and some layers being made of a dielectric material. The layers of composite material include a mixture of host dielectric material and inclusions, such that said inclusions are embedded in the structure of the host dielectric material. Said inclusions preferably include highly conductive fibres, specifically metal microwires. Thus, the structure of the material according to the invention includes a plurality of layers, some layers being made of a composite material, which includes a host dielectric material with inclusions, and some layers being made of a dielectric material. The structure of the material according to the invention is designed so that the surface on which said material is applied is capable of absorbing a portion of the incident electromagnetic radiation, thus substantially reducing the electromagnetic radiation reflected by same curved.

  • Patent number: 8641817
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a paint with metallic microwires, to the process for integrating metallic microwires to obtain such paint, and to a process for applying said paint on metallic surfaces (1). The process for applying paint is performed in several steps: applying a first coat (2) of primer on the metallic surface; applying on the first coat (2) a second coat (3, 3?) of paint; applying on said second coat (3) an active third coat (4) of a paint containing microwires; and sanding said active third coat (4) with fine grain sandpaper to remove the microwires oriented perpendicular to the plane of the metallic surface; the maximum attenuation frequency of the reflectivity of said electromagnetic radiation being determined within of the range of maximum attenuation frequencies given by the composition of the paint with microwires, and by the thicknesses and dielectric constants of the different coats.

  • Patent number: 7898251
    Abstract: A method and system for the characterization of a magnetic element based on ferromagnetic resonance, the magnetic element presents ferromagnetic resonance and its own characteristic resonance frequency. The system includes mechanism for application of a low-frequency electromagnetic field in a given area; a mechanism for application of a high-frequency electromagnetic wave the same as the characteristic resonance frequency of the magnetic element in the same area; and a control unit configured so as to control the simultaneous application of the low-frequency electromagnetic field so that in response to the introduction of the magnetic element in the area the magnetic element absorbs the high-frequency electromagnetic wave with a frequency the same as that of the low-frequency electromagnetic field, so the wave is modulated.
