Equivalent single conductor for modeling near field radiated emission of carbon nanotube bundles

The electromagnetic field radiated from a singlewall carbon nanotube bundle in the common mode excitation, above a perfect conductive plane, is predicted in the frequency domain using the equivalent single conductor (ESC) formulation. The effect of the frequency and of the bundle configuration on the near field level is investigated, in order to predict the risk of electromagnetic interference against nearby components and devices, like interconnects.
