Description
Summary:This paper proposes a copper nanoparticle ink printed frequency selective surface (FSS) for cellular signals suppression. The FSS pattern is deposited on a polyimide film by using an inkjet printing technique. The printed FSS elements undergo the post-processing called sintering, where the optimum exposure duration and temperature are determined in order to form a conductive path across the metal pattern. Later, the conductivity of the printed FSS structure deposited on polyimide film is observed. The signal suppression ability of the printed FSS is conducted using the Computer Simulation Technology (CST) Microwave Studio software.
