Competitive Advantages
- Easy to manufacture
- High absorption properties
- Reduces noise in spectral measurements
Summary
USF inventors have developed an Extremely High Surface Area (EHSA) material composed of an array of needle like structures covered in nanoparticles. The surface of the materials has superior ability to absorb radiation. These materials can potentially be used for military applications as a coating agent to reduce radar signatures. It also finds applications in vacuum tube electron devices, scanning electron microscopy, mass spectroscopy and electron spectroscopy instruments, or wherever there is a need for radiation absorption, or isolation from EM radiation is necessary.
