Optimization of Multilayer Shields Made of Composite Nanostructured Materials

In this paper, we propose a multilayer nanostructured composite for broadband shielding applications. Layers disposal, electrical parameters, and thicknesses are optimized through a winning particle optimization algorithm to achieve the minimization of the transmitted waves. The structures are simulated by including the forward/backward scattering matrix formalism in the optimization code. The adopted algorithm is the recently introduced winning...
