Scientists in South Korea have figured out a way to reinforce critical sites against electromagnetic pulses (EMP), embedding a specially designed metal mesh into windows.
A team led by Chang Won Jung at Seoul National University of Science and Technology created glass windows that incorporate an asymmetric hexagonal metal mesh film, delivering EMP protection without sacrificing optical clarity.
Civilian-grade versions can reportedly withstand pulses up to 60 decibels, while military-grade configurations push protection to 80 decibels, all without needing external power or complex wiring.
