Abstract (en)
A sealing system for blocking or attenuating microwave energy (14) between two environments or regions of space (1, 2) includes an electromagnetic bandgap (EBG) seal (20) mounted within an opening (3) in the partition (4) that separates the two environments or regions of space (1, 2) from each other. The EBG seal (20) consists of an EBG structure (21) secured to one side of the opening (3), an electrically conducting surface (12) secured to the other side of the opening, and a dielectric volume (11) between the EBG structure (21) and the electrically conducting surface (12). Transmission spectral response of the EBG seal (20) features one or more distinct stop bands (bandgaps), as shown in Fig. 1 B, that the seal (20) operates in. Said EBG structure especially refers to any metallodielectric structure with substantially periodic metallization and featuring inherent frequency bands where propagation of electromagnetic energy is forbidden and allowed. Typical EBG structure may consist of substantially periodically-spaced electrically conducting patches (31) placed on, or embedded in, a dielectric layer (32) that is backed by an electrically conducting surface (33). The electrically conducting patches (31) may be connected to the electrically conducting surface by electrically conducting posts (34).
