Abstract :
Experimental tests highlight that transparent films used for thermal control in windows can be successfully adopted to obtain electromagnetic shielding in the radio frequency range. New multifunctional sandwich-structures consisting of commercial films over a glass layer are investigated. Electromagnetic, optical, and thermal performances are predicted and optimized by using the developed simulation codes. Numerical and measured frequency spectra of the shielding effectiveness and optical transmittance of the realized multilayer structures are shown.
