Plamsa-shell™ Switch Products
Plasma-shells™ can be used as switches. When the gas inside the Plasma-shell™ is energized, it conducts. When it is not energized (off) it is open. The switching property of the Plasma-shell™ coupled with its ruggedness allow for some novel applications including plasma based frequency selectable surfaces, plasma base RF shields, and plasma based sievenpiper surfaces.

Nuclear and RF Shielding
IST Plasma-shells™ can be used for shielding and energy absorption. In addition, basic research is being performed on IST Plasma-shells™ for use as a camouflage against RADAR detection

Increased threat exists for interference of electronic equipment by electromagnetic radiation. Due to a higher number of transmitters and their increasing power levels, expensive and sensitive objects can easily be corrupted. The effect can be disastrous. IST Plasma-shells™ can be excited at a very fast rate, and thus act as a shield, so equipment is protected.
IST Plasma-shells™ offer effective, affordable solutions for robust
nuclear or RF shielding applications.
