Abstract
An electromagnetic isolation cavity surrounded by a generally annular solid conductive wall is produced by coating edge surfaces of respective dielectric tape layers with a material containing a conductor. The tape layers are then stacked, with the coated edge surfaces aligned and facing the electromagnetic isolation cavity.
Claims5
A method for producing an electromagnetic isolation cavity surrounded by a generally annular solid conductive wall, comprising:
- coating an edge surface of each of a plurality of dielectric tape layers with a material comprising a conductor;
- drying the material coated on the edge surfaces;
- and
- after said coating, stacking the tape layers on a ground plane formed from a material comprising a conductor, to form a tape stack with the coated edge surfaces aligned and facing the electromagnetic isolation cavity and with the ground plane defining a closed end of the electromagnetic isolation cavity.
