Radio Frequency (RF) and Infrared (IR) Transparent Resistive Heaters

Resistive heating systems are described that have alternating, concentric positive and negative electric leads coated by a thin resistive heating layer. The resistive heating system, especially when the coating is a CNT coating, exhibits excellent transmittance in the L, S, C, X, and/or Ku bands. Th...

Zusammenfassung:Resistive heating systems are described that have alternating, concentric positive and negative electric leads coated by a thin resistive heating layer. The resistive heating system, especially when the coating is a CNT coating, exhibits excellent transmittance in the L, S, C, X, and/or Ku bands. The resistive heating system is well-suited for a radome, and the invention includes a transmitter system and/or receiver system, especially for radio or infrared transmissions. The invention also provides a polarizable resistive heating system having a comb-like structure of alternated or interdigitated positive and negative leads.
