Abstract

We provide theoretical and experimental evidence that introducing metallic rings and sub-rings in mesh unit cells significantly decreases the high-order diffraction energy. Moreover, rotating the sub-rings results in increased uniformity in the diffraction distribution without affecting the transmittance. Experiments show that the triangular ring mesh with rotated sub-rings exhibits a normalized visible transmittance greater than 95% as well as an ultra-uniform diffraction pattern of stray light, whose maximal normalized high-order diffraction energy is lower than 0.0167%. This kind of metallic mesh will be favorable in transparent electromagnetic interference shielding devices and touch screens.
