The Electromagnetic Shielding Effectiveness Using Conducting Polymers

전도성 고분자를 이용한 전자파 차폐효과

The conductive polymers, polyaniline (PANI) emeraldine base and 3, 4-polyethylene dioxythiophene (PEDOT) were synthesized and coated on the PET film primer-dealt with acryl type to find out the electromagnetic shielding effectiveness. When conductive polymer such as PANI and PEDOT is used, if the thickness of coating increases then the electromagnetic shielding effectiveness increases, too, but the visible light transmittance decreases. For PANI, when its conductivity increased, its electromagnetic shielding effectiveness increased, too. For PANI, if the surface resistance is about 140 $\Omega$/$\square$, the shielding effectiveness is about 11 dB in the far field, and about 13 dB in the near field at 1 GHz. For PEDOT, when the surface resistance is about 200 $\Omega$/$\square$, the shielding effectiveness is about 3 dB.
