VOLUMERTIC ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPONENTS

摘要

Method and apparatus for making volumetric electromagnetic components are disclosed. Material accretion devices or apparatus such as a 3D printer can be used to form the volumetric electromagnetic components. The volumetric electromagnetic components can include folded and/or self-similar features such as fractals. The volumetric electromagnetic components can include conductive and/or non- conductive materials. EM energy absorbing systems are described as having a volumetric electromagnetic component embedded within a dielectric material.
