Carbon nanotube based cabling
One cable shielding has a first metal shielding braided along a length of a cable, a CNT paper shielding surrounding the first metal shielding along the length of the cable, and a second metal shielding braided about the CNT paper shielding along the length of the cable.
1. A cable shielding, comprising:
a first metal shielding braided along a length of a cable;
a CNT paper shielding surrounding the first metal shielding along the length of the cable; and
a second metal shielding braided about the CNT paper shielding along the length of the cable.
2. A low voltage differential signaling (LVDS) cable, comprising:
a first carbon nanotube (CNT) strand;
a first copper layer affixed directly to a surface of the first CNT strand;
a second carbon nanotube (CNT) strand;
a second copper layer affixed directly to a surface of the first CNT strand;
a first metal shielding braided about the first CNT strand, the first copper layer, the second CNT strand, and the second copper layer along a length of the cable;
a CNT paper shielding surrounding the first metal shielding along the length of the cable; and
a second metal shielding braided about the CNT paper shielding along the length of the cable.
3. The cable of claim 1 , wherein:
the first metal shielding comprises copper or tinned copper.
