| MAST Technologies is a leading designer and manufacturer of both RF and microwave absorbing materials (RF absorbers, microwave absorbers). In industry, RF absorbing materials and microwave absorbing materials can take on many different names. Some of the more common names include: RF absorber, microwave absorber, EMI absorber, Radar Absorbing Material or RAM, magnetically radar absorbing material or mag-RAM, EMI suppression material, or surface wave absorber. All of these different nomenclatures point to a material who’s magnetic and/or electric properties have been altered, such that they absorb or attenuate energy. Historically, worldwide military forces used microwave-absorbing materials to reduce reflections of high-frequency energy. However, with the increase in clock speeds, there has been a trend toward the use of microwave absorbing materials in commercial applications. Consumer electronics, notebook computers, wireless LAN devices, network servers and switches, wireless antenna systems, cellular phone base stations are just a few of the high-frequency device applications that have adopted this technology.
