Description

The method and apparatus of decay electromagnetic interference
Invention field
The present invention relates to the electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding, more specifically, use multilayer screen substrate to optimize and be higher than under the frequency of 100MHz, the particularly decay of the electromagnetic interference (EMI) under the higher frequency with transparent structure.
Background technology
Has continuous electromagnetic radiation in the air of industrialization society.This class electromagnetic radiation is present in the very big frequency range, is typically the radio wave that electric device sends.Although think that now the electromagnetic radiation of medium level is harmless relatively to vital tissues, can damage electronic instrument and equipment in some work.
In some cases, need radome to isolate sensitive device and be not subjected to effect of electromagnetic radiation, these devices comprise the Electronic Testing and the enciphered data communication of nulcear magnetic resonance (NMR) (NMR) imaging, communication device.Usually, the emission of electronic equipment also needs to be included.The EMI shielding often is continuous coated realization the by one or more layers metallic conduction material of coating (for example, copper, aluminium, bronze or steel) on the radome wall.Screen is usually in single-point grounding, and the electromagnetic energy that radome is absorbed imports in the earth.Very close to each other in this conductive shield is vital, even also be like this there being the position such as holes such as door or windows.
Usually on various radomes, need window, so that observer, custodian and operating technology person can monitor situation about taking place in the radome outside in radome.In the NMR imaging, be also referred to as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), patient and very responsive MRI equipment all are in the EMI radome.Create noiseless environment like this, avoided in final image, occurring artificial image or image deflects.The shield grid that designs in the EMI attenuating device and the exemplary of window are disclosed in U.S. Patent number 4701801,5012041,5017419,5239125 and 5295046.
The window of EMI/RFI radome must shield, and exists continuous electric to contact with the radome wall.And the window substrate must have enough " transparency " and " saturating sound " arranged in some cases, allows the control personnel to monitor outside.Therefore, need make the window substrate cause optical skew to minimize.
The window that comprises the glass of individual layer or double layer screen grid, optically transparent plating or the combination of transparent plastic or other electric conducting material or above-mentioned substance etc. is at the optically transparent decay EMI that is applied to simultaneously.Shield effectiveness depends on each parameter, and these parameters comprise the thickness and the kind of shield grid mesh pattern, line footpath, grid number and electric conducting material.
When using shield grid, a shield effectiveness factor (S E) be between the gridline of each individually shielded grid the function of distance (g).Can be expressed as following equation:
S E=f(g)
When g=0, the electric field decay increases under high frequency., this also causes the reduction of final substrate " transparency " and " saturating sound ".
The window that is made of one deck shield grid has certain EMI damping capacity, but is being higher than under the frequency of 1MHz, the power power of the every increase 10 of frequency, and this EMI fade performance reduces about 20dB.This be illustrated in White Donald R.J's " electromagnetic shielding material and performance thereof ", second edition in 1980 (Don White consultants, Inc., Gainesville, Virginia).As a result, along with frequency obviously increases, see through the electromagnetic radiation of significant amounts from single shielded gate structures.
The window of being made up of two-layer parallel shield grid has improved decay, and the double shield grid EMI window of this example shown in being disclosed in United States Patent (USP) 5012041 is referred to here as a reference.United States Patent (USP) 5012041 points out, uses to comprise each other different and the decay EMI and reduce moire pattern of two different parallel shield grids of distance to each other of wire size.
, the present inventor finds be higher than 100MHz, and particularly in the frequency range of 1GHz to 10GHz, the fade performance that two parallel shielded gate structures produce takes place unusual.This unusual be the function of shield grid separation distance, when the distance of separating two plane shield grids equals half the integral multiple of wavelength (λ) of incident electromagnetic wave, this unusually especially serious.Here wavelength is by equation c=f lambda definition, and c is the light velocity, and f is a wave frequency.In these cases, each respective frequencies and and integral multiple, space between shield grid constitutes a resonant cavity.This cause resonance frequency and harmonic wave position thereof or near, the EMI fade performance significantly reduces.The existence that this resonance is propagated causes the problem of imager, and for example, for the signal that goal in research is sent, consequent transmission ray may be wrong.And the present inventor finds that also can resonance take place in any frequency propagates.As the result of this resonance generation phenomenon, under certain frequency, to compare with single shield grid system, the double shield grating system has worse attenuation characteristic.
Do not consider the relative separation distance between shield grid, can produce adverse effect at the textural simple interpolation additional mask grid of double shield grid.This is that it is the function of distance between the shield grid because the additional mask grid can be introduced additional resonance frequency.
There are such needs technically, promptly are provided under the frequency that is higher than 100MHz,, improve the method and apparatus of EMI fade performance, have enough " transparency " and " saturating sound " characteristic simultaneously particularly in the frequency range of 1GHz to 10GHz.These method and apparatus should use business-like material, also should keep in repair easily and replace simultaneously.

Structure shown in Fig. 2 A holds the combination of rigid conductive substrate, compliant conductive substrate or rigidity and flexible substrate.Three substrate modules comprise the structure stand 26 and 27 that is fit to be contained in the opening and links up basically with the whole periphery of opening as shown in the figure.Support integral body can have similar cross sectional shape.Support 26 and an embodiment of 27 are for having oblique angle metal extrusion shapes.Suitable metal includes but not limited to: tin-plated brass, other alloy, aluminium or steel.As selection, can on above-mentioned oblique angle, arrange the electrically conductive elastic band, thereby guaranteeing to have closerly electrically contacts between module carrier spare 26,27 and window periphery.Itself electrically contact and embed wherein shelf support 41, be used to limit window edge with the wall 14 of radome.
Usually, any conduction or the material that is endowed conductivity all are suitable bracket supports material or timbering materials.So, support can be solid material (homogeneous electric conducting material) or on non-conducting material the coating electrically conductive material form.It is that 1 millimeter thickness is suitable that conductive coating begins.Like this, shelf support 41 can apply the material of high conductivity, normally such as non-oxidizable materials such as tin.
When using or make up rigid conductive substrate or compliant conductive substrate, can use the substrate Fastener of Fig. 2 A shown type.Usually, use lapping plate 15 is pressed against each other frame member 26,27 or is secured on conductive substrate 36,37 and 38.Snap action points to the median surface of opening, and this plane parallel is in the EMI attenuating elements of just installing here, and snap action is by playing a role such as bolt 21 fixtures such as grade or securing member.Bolt 21 is arranged in the zone of window bracket supporting member 41, and forms complementary match surface such as screwed hole 22.
Shelf support 41 comprises that is also pointed to the lip limit 43 that open centre extends internally, and module flat is the right angle relatively.The lip limit utilizes lapping plate 15 to press them together and abut on the lip limit as the back block piece of substrate support 26 and 27.Other is used for fastening lapping plate 15 also is suitable to the part on the wall shielding part 17.For example, be convenient to direct fastening lapping plate to the frame member 26, from another inside bolt hole structure of first bolt hole, additional stability can be provided, also promote electrically contacting between frame member 26 and plate 15 simultaneously.
Under the situation of only using flexible substrate (as shield grid), can use other supporting structure 28 and 29 that is shown in Fig. 2 B.This structure has curved channel 46,47,48, at first holds the edge of flexible shielding grid.The flexible curled-edge 44 that is fit to be contained in passage 46,47,48 is wedged in the passage tightly, guarantees electrically contacting between shielding screen and support.It is in 5012041 the patent that this shield grid fastening structure also is disclosed in U.S. Patent number, it for this assignee all and refer to here as a reference.
Frame member 28 and 29 can pile up as the frame member 26 and 27 of Fig. 2 A with interference fit to be assembled.Fig. 2 B provides a kind of selectable embodiment, the centre position of one of them frame member 29 between another frame member 28 and window opening, thus make conductive substrate 36,37 and 38 install one by one.
Frame member 28,29 utilizes standard negative and positive helicitic texture 30 to be releasably attached on the window bracket supporting member 41.At this moment, being fit to be formed the slip of transverse holes frame member zone such as securing members such as bolts holds.The bolt end anchors to the zone that the window bracket supporting member forms screwed hole 22.Selectable cam member or ' pull-up ' pin (it can append on the above-mentioned negative and positive helicitic texture 30 or with part 30 and work) is positioned at around the shield grid of installation, and is used for adjustable ground each shield grid that stretches.As a kind of auxiliary ' mechanical tuning device ', play a role after this elongation on shield grid surface or lax can or the installation at initial erection stage.For strengthening machinery and electrically contacting, shield grid can be wound on frame member 28 and 29.
Another kind of substrate installation method has been described in Fig. 2 C.In this embodiment, shield grid 36,37 and 38, perhaps other conductive substrate keeps being electrical contact with each other, and keeps and radome 17 electrically contacts by simple securing member and Fastener.At this moment, between the conduction lamination 50 that shield grid is sandwiched in successively and shielding wall 17 and shield grid 36,37 and 38 electrically contact.Also keep electrically contacting closely as long as produce, any that lapping plate 50 is fastened to the mode of shielding wall 17 is all suitable.This fastening means includes but not limited to screw thread 54, welding and frictional fit.
For keep be separated from each other between the contiguous conductive substrate apparent surface predetermined distance D 1 and D2, can use being fit to holding, anchoring or and the packing material 52 that cooperates of screw.
Another substrate installation method has been described in Fig. 2 D.This structure allows that independent mounting bracket 64,65 and 66 is on bracket leg bearing surface 61,62 and 63 respectively, and its medium-height trestle-area supported is arranged with inclination, step-like structure.Step support-area supported integrated molding each other constitutes single rack mounting structure 68, perhaps makes separately respectively and utilizes above-mentioned multiple chucking or bolt part to connect together.Similar, support 64,65 and 66 utilizes screw thread, bolt or other securing member 71 reversibly to be installed to the bracket supports surface separately.A notable feature of this installation constitution is to make independent support substrate install one by one, has made things convenient for like this from radome one side selected substrate is carried out installation, maintenance, replacement and cleaning.
Can use one or more conductive substrates that a plurality of conductive surfaces described here are provided.For example, when exemplary mounting structure held single conductive substrate easily, monolithic compliant conductive substrate can fold or arrange so that described surface to be provided.The application of this use single flexible conductive substrate can be imagined the situation in Fig. 2 A-2C, and wherein surface 36,37 and 38 is formed by the monolithic flexible substrate, snakelike passing (Serpenting through) installed part and filling substrate.Substrate is apart from details
Have been found that the multiple distance between shield grid can provide good fade performance.In some cases, the shield grid separating distance reaches 30 inches, but is generally 1/3 to 12 inch, is used to optimize the EMI shielding properties.Usually, the distance of separating first and second shield grids is 1.5 to 2 inches, and the distance of separating the second and the 3rd shield grid can provide good effect for 0.5 to 0.75 inch.In some cases and depend on target EMI frequency, should be not equal between other substrate apart from D2 apart from D1 between substrate ... the integral multiple of Dx.In an exemplary, the 3rd shield grid 38 arranges with respect to first and second shield grids 36,37, makes about but inaccurate half of between the second and the 3rd shield grid 37,38 distance of being defined as of distance between first and second shield grids 36,37.Although rely on the EMI frequency, the preferred maximum distance of separating the second and the 3rd shield grid 37,38 approximately is 2 inches.
As mentioned above, different referring among the present invention between three shield grids with non-integral multiple distance, when forming a resonant cavity with convenient first and second shield grids, the 3rd shield grid stops the propagation of resoance radiation.On the contrary, when the second and the 3rd shield grid formed a resonant cavity, first shield grid stopped the propagation of resoance radiation.Conductive substrate material details
Shielding substrate 36,37,38 utilizes the electric conducting material manufacturing.Material with the resistance that reaches 12 ohm every square is suitable.Like this, when striding across two parallel sides measuring resistances of square region, foursquare EMI attenuation module should have and not be higher than 12 ohm resistance.When selecting the larger area conductive substrate for use, correspondingly need thicker conductive layer.Usually, the thickness of conductive layer is decided by the needs of the transparency, is not need be decided by resistance.Generally, resistance is 0.10 * 10 7Ohms/m to 6.25 * 10 7Substrate between the ohms/m is good selection.
Can use but be not limited to following polytype electric conducting material: gold, silver, bronze, copper, aluminium, stainless steel and combination thereof.The present inventor finds that determine, high relatively reflectivity (being conductance) material (for example bronze, copper and stainless steel) has higher fade performance as middle shield grid 37.
Other embodiment also is suitable as conductive substrate, includes but not limited to, by the composite material of rigidity that applies satisfactory electrical conductivity and optical clear metal or net grid coating or flexible and transparent structure (for example plastics or glass) formation.Electric conducting material can utilize flame-spraying, electro-deposition (as plasma spraying) or utilize other method to be coated onto on the matrix.Under the situation of lattice, this method allows to use the thick or thicker slightly optically transparent conductive coating of several dusts.As a result, these optically transparent materials have than supporting the better light transmission of shield grid certainly.Suitable optically transparent material is by the Pilkington United Kingdom Co., Ltd that is positioned at Helen Si street, England, and the storm wind safety system company of the Troy by being positioned at Ohio, USA (OH) provides.
As mentioned above, substrate can utilize slab construction, curved tabs structural configuration, perhaps uses plane and curved configuration simultaneously.For example, Fig. 2 A has described a common flat substrate 37,38, and its periphery constitutes the knuckle part 39 and 40 that makes progress respectively.These knuckle districts that can select to provide can further promote electrically contacting between substrate and shelf support 41.The shield grid substrate details
Here shield grid is as conductive substrate, and several different mesh order numbers are suitable.The mesh figure can be defined as on 1 inch length the number along a given straight line or orthogonal direction opening.As mentioned above, the mesh of different shield grids varies in size.Usually, mesh order number has good attenuation results between 14 (slightly) and 60 (carefully).In one embodiment, need the decay maximization and place little emphasis on and minimize moire pattern, this moment, first shield grid 36 can have thick relatively mesh figure, and secondary shielding grid 37 can have thin relatively mesh figure, and innermost shield grid 38 has the thinnest mesh figure in three shield grids., be the attenuating that need to obtain, can shield grid be installed according to any order.Use the advantage of shield grid to be to have in many cases the described assembly such as Fig. 2 B Fig. 2 D, wherein shield grid can be dismantled separately, with convenient for cleaning, maintenance with change.
Except use had three shield grids of different mesh figures, three shield grids also can oriented arrangement, so that each the skew certain angle in the electric wire array of the electric wire array of each shield grid and other two shield grids.Deviation angle can be obtained optimum performance in time between 15 to 45 degree.This arranged offset can minimize net pattern effect.
Shield grid can form multiple different structure.Suitable shield grid comprises the conductive strand that is arranged as triangle, quadrangle or other polygon mode.And shield grid electric wire actual diameter can be different, and thick line has higher rigidity usually.
Except braided wire cloth, other but the structure that is not limited to all is suitable such as grid matrix, open grid, perforated sheets and vacuum moulding machine to the conductive grids on the non-metal base (as the glass plate that is using on the window).Usually the deposition continuous film eats away unnecessary metal again.When the metallization pattern on the use transparent substrate, the rigidity on surface relies on width and the thickness that deposits to on-chip grid metalwork.The shielding properties example
With reference to Fig. 3 and 4, this graphical representation is at three plane shield grid designs, the biplane shield grid design with 1 and 3/4 inch width, the biplane shield grid design with 3/4 inch interval and the design of single shield grid, improved EMI shielding properties in 1GHz arrives the 11GHz frequency.
Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 represent the excellent shielding properties of three shield grid systems of the present invention, wherein can obtain 100dB or above decay.The excellent shielding properties of three shield grid systems is to have reduced the result of EM resonance, wherein be higher than relatively being also illustrated among the figure of 10MHz double shield grating system.For example, when using the double shield grid, the EMI fade performance descends when certain original frequency and resonance/resonance frequency, for example relatively at resonance point (the A point among Fig. 3) and its 2 overtones band 6.6GHz (the some B among Fig. 4) of frequency 3.3GHz.Other resonance point is labeled as C, D and E in above-mentioned two figure.Three shield grid systems do not exist tangible resonance or sympathetic response effect under said frequencies.Like this, the present invention has not only improved overall shielding character, has also optimized the shielding properties under selected frequency.
Can use 4 or the shield grid that more has an appropriate intervals to expand said method.Non-parallel substrate
Referring now to Fig. 5 A, 5B, 5C, provide end view according to other design of the present invention.As mentioned above, arrange three shield grids EMI that decays., these designs also adopt non-parallel cavity to come the surface further to promote the non-complete reflection mutually of the EMI of cavity qualification.Shown in Fig. 5 A, a kind of mode that influences non-parallel surfaces is inwardly pulling or laterally moves the part that the first and the 3rd shield grid 36,38 forms cavity 15 inwalls 19.A not too protruding side shield grid structure is illustrated in Fig. 5 B.As a kind of selection, the center also can outwards be moved, thereby makes the inwall indent, and in other words, the first and the 3rd shield grid 36,38 can be by the design structure of basic bending, so that each cambered surface partly is positioned at opposite direction.As a kind of selection, shown in Fig. 5 C, two in three shield grids are arranged as ' V ' shape structure.
At last, the first and the 3rd shield grid can have the difform surface that faces with each other, for example form the surface of indent more by locating first shield grid 36 from central cross or outside skew, inwardly or to off-centring formation more protrusion is surperficial to locate the 3rd shield grid 38 simultaneously.Another kind of suitable shield grid structure comprises two the side shield grids 36,38 in location, utilizes intershield grid 37 to cut apart the acute angle that (perhaps five equilibrium or not five equilibrium) forms effectively between two side shield grids, forms ' V ' shape.
In a kind of method of making non-parallel housing surface, one end of electric wire is connected with the center 39 of first shield grid 36, and the other end connects with the corresponding center 39 of the 3rd shield grid 38, thereby inwardly spur or laterally move outermost shield grid and point to the intershield grid, form the part inwall 19 of protruding cavity.The another kind of method of making the curved surface housing surface is the shape that at first the rigid conductive made is become to need, and re-uses and handles above-mentioned ' substrate material details ' described plane conductive substrate same procedure these on-plane surfaces are carried out metalized.
The same with former design, the distance between any two adjacent substrate should be not equal to the integral multiple of respective distances between other shield grid.
Fig. 6 and the pulling design of 7 contrasts, three shield grid centers, three plane shield grid design and the designs of single shield grid, the EMI pad value of corresponding different frequency.Comment 14 * 18 expression mesh order numbers among the figure.
Fig. 6 and 7 illustrates that clearly the three shield grid centers attenuation characteristic of pulling design under definite resonance frequency is better than three plane shield grids designs (seeing a F, G, H).For example when frequency 7.9GHz (G point among Fig. 7), the reduction (being reduced to 31dB) of fade performance appears in the resonance that the parallel design of three shield grids causes owing to distance between inner shield grid 36 and external shield grid 38.Comparatively speaking, the pad value that provides of center pulling structure surpasses 50dB.
, in Fig. 7, under some higher frequencies, three shield grid plan-parallel structures show better EMI fade performance (except resonance frequency) than center pulling structure.

Special value of the present invention is to eliminate or remove resonance point from interested frequency.Operation of the present invention can be described as a kind of like this method of the electromagnetic radiation that decays, and at first makes electromagnetic radiation shine the first conductive plane substrate, the first that causes electromagnetic radiation by this substrate and the electromagnetic radiation second portion by first substrate; Make the electromagnetic radiation that passes through enter one then and prevent that these electromagnetic radiations that pass through from producing the device of resonance frequency.
Originally prevent that resonance device from comprising the cavity that an additional conductive planar substrates that utilizes the first conductive plane substrate and a plurality of vicinity first conductive plane substrate to be arranged in juxtaposition constitutes.Wherein, additional substrate is along arranging with electromagnetic radiation initial point rightabout.
In a word, the invention provides a kind of best method that shields substrate and a kind of EMI of optimization shielding properties that serves many purposes.Therefore the inventive method and substrate can be used for various purposes, can and separate structure as radome wall structure, ceiling structure, window structure, and army's industry that also can be used for electronic product manufacturing, motor vehicle manufacturing and relate to anti-eavesdrop is used.
Therefore, can use typical conductive substrate (aforesaid shield grid and metallization grid array) and atypia conductive substrate, these atypia conductive substrates include but not limited to be arranged as such as non-rectangle forms such as triangle, honeycombed and circles, and wherein these construction units can with one heart or same size be arranged and co-planar arrangement constitutes a continuous substrate sheet.By selecting suitable material, this method and substrate can be any one element of attempting the additional transparent and saturating sound of screen.
Describe although the present invention is the details according to embodiment shown in of the present invention, these details are not used in restriction appended claims restricted portion.For example and as previously mentioned, be the EMI fade performance that obtains at target frequency the best, two, three or can be arranged opposite to each other more than three substrate, and the surface of revising or making them separately.
