Electromagnetic Shielding (EMI/ EMS)

EMI or EMS is of importance for consumer electronics, inudstrial and medical applications. Radio-frequency (RF) or electromagnetic radiation can be blocked basically by two types of coatings:

  • Conductive films
  • Magnetic films

Testing

  • Sheet resistance
  • Conductivity
  • Thickness
  • Homogeneity
  • Shielding behaviour at certain frequencies

Applications

  • Deposition process control
  • Quality control

Substrates

  • Foil
  • Plastics
  • Glass

Process

  • S2S
  • R2R

Environment

  • In-vacuo and ex-vacuo
  • In-situ and ex-situ
  • Inline and offline
  • Wet and dry
