Faraday Cage
• Understanding the concept of Faraday Cage
and its importance.
Introduction
• A Faraday Cage is an enclosure used to block
electromagnetic fields.
Historical Background
• Discovered by Michael Faraday in 1836, it
revolutionized electromagnetic shielding.
Basic Concept
• It works by distributing electromagnetic
charges around its exterior, preventing
penetration.
Scientific Principle
• Operates on the principle of electromagnetic
shielding, using conductive materials.
Types of Faraday Cages
• Types: Mesh Faraday Cage, Solid Cage, Hybrid
Variants.
Materials Used
• Made of conductive materials like copper,
aluminum, and steel.
Applications in Daily Life
