Thanks to its high electrical conductivity, a graphene plane presents good shielding efficiency against GHz electromagnetic radiations. Several planes separated by thin polymer spacers add their conductivities arithmetically, because each of them conserves the intrinsic properties isolated graphene. Maximum absorption radiations for frequency around 30 is achieved with six planes, which optimum number. This remarkable result demonstrated experimentally from measurements performed in Ka band...
