  • Patent number: 7479917
    Abstract: An electromagnetic wave absorber has a configuration in which at least three hollow tetrahedrons, each having one open face, are connected to one another so that each surface opposite to a respective open face of the hollow tetrahedrons defines a respective side face of a hollow pyramid. Preferably, the electromagnetic wave absorber is made of sheet electromagnetic wave absorption members, which have a corrugated board structure in which at least one sheet includes an electrically conductive material. The electromagnetic wave absorber is low-cost, has reduced transport volume, excellent electromagnetic wave absorption characteristics from low frequency to high frequency with a shorter absorber length, has no or small difference in characteristics due to polarization plane, is lightweight and high in structural strength, and easy to manufacture and install.
    Type: Grant
