New experimental methods for determining electromagnetic field attenuation in nanomaterials

The interaction between electromagnetic radiation and infinite plane shield having finite thickness d, placed in free space in the plane waves region depends on material/shield macroscopic parameters (¿, ¿, ¿), its thickness, radiation frequency and incidence angle. Lately, entirely new classes of materials have been developed. Knowing the characteristics and the behavior of nanomaterials inside different media creates wide opportunities for a variety of industrial applications. For that reason, a simple method to determine their electromagnetic field (EMF) attenuation properties is also necessary. This paper presents experimental methods for the investigation of nanomaterials behavior inside the EMF.
