[0005] Electromagnetic radiation poses a significant threat to information security in the field of electric vehicle power battery technology, as it directly impacts the accuracy of testing and data analysis during battery use. Therefore, finding methods to reduce radiation associated with the operation of electronic devices is a pressing technical challenge. Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) testing of power battery packs involves a series of tests to ensure that the electric vehicle power battery system does not generate or experience electromagnetic interference during normal use and operation in external electromagnetic environments. These tests are typically conducted by testing laboratories to verify the EMC performance of new energy vehicle power battery packs. However, existing testing methods struggle to achieve seamless management of all batteries throughout their entire lifecycle and do not provide effective guidance for improvements to lithium-ion batteries. Technical issues

The first test result includes at least the frequency dependence of the sample's dispersion structure, particle shape, electromagnetic radiation reflection coefficient and transmittance.

[0066] Referring to Figure 1, which is a flowchart of steps S101 to S103 of the electromagnetic compatibility testing method for a power battery using a metal thin film provided in an embodiment of this application, the explanation will be based on steps S101 to S103 shown in Figure 1.

[0067] In step S101, a first shielding effectiveness model is constructed; wherein, the first shielding effectiveness model characterizes the influence of the number of layers of metal thin films of different materials on the shielding effectiveness.

[0068] The embodiments of this application aim to optimize and verify the effect of metal thin films in improving the electromagnetic compatibility of power batteries through refined modeling and experimental verification.

[0069] First, based on theoretical analysis and preliminary experimental data, a preliminary model was established to describe the influence of different materials (such as copper, aluminum, nickel, etc.) and different numbers of metal thin films on electromagnetic shielding effectiveness. This model serves as the basis for subsequent experiments and optimizations.

[0070] In some embodiments, referring to FIG2, FIG2 is a flowchart of steps S201 to S203 provided in the embodiments of this application. The construction of the first shielding effectiveness model can be achieved through steps S201 to S203, which will be explained in conjunction with each step.

[0071] In step S201, a single-layer shielding effectiveness model is constructed;

[0072] Here, in an alternating magnetic field, due to the close proximity of the thin film layers, they interact with each other, thus affecting the shielding effectiveness. Because of the induced eddy currents, the alternating magnetic field can be shielded through conductive shielding. The single-layer shielding effectiveness is calculated as follows:

[0073] ,

[0074] Where k3 represents the single-layer shielding factor, L3 is the shielding inductance coefficient, R3 is the shielding impedance, and w is the magnetic field frequency.

[0075] In step S202, based on the single-layer shielding effectiveness model, an equivalent circuit of an n-layer structure, field source, and measuring device is constructed through a metal network composed of multiple conductive layers;

[0076] In practice, it is sometimes necessary to use a metal network composed of several layers of different thicknesses. To analyze the shielding effectiveness of a metal network composed of multiple conductive layers against alternating magnetic fields, the following form needs to be considered: each conductive layer is represented as an equivalent circuit consisting of an inductor L and a resistor R connected in parallel, where L is the layer inductance and R represents the resistance of the screen to the eddy currents flowing through it. The equivalent circuit of the n-layer structure, field source, and measuring device is shown in Figure 3.

[0077] The magnetic field is generated by an alternating current I0 of frequency w passing through a coil L0. Without shielding, an electromotive force is induced in the receiving coil L′, as shown in the formula:

[0078] ,

[0079] Where k is the mutual inductance coefficient of the coil. Considering the use of a closed shielding device to shield the source, we can assume that the connection between the source and the shielding layer, as well as the connection between each shield, is complete. We can use I1...In to represent the current in each shielding layer, and write a system containing n equations for the electromotive force appearing in each layer.

[0080] ,

[0081] Where the mutual inductance between the i-th and j-th coils is denoted by Lij. The shielding coefficient is found as the ratio of the electromotive force induced in the receiving coil under unshielded and shielded conditions, and the formula is:

[0082] ,

[0083] Here, Uэ is caused by the eddy currents flowing within the shield, as shown in the following equation:

[0084] ,

[0085] Calculations using MATLAB yielded the following:

[0086] ,

[0087] Furthermore, the value of the multi-layer shielding factor is:

[0088] ,

[0089] From the formula, it can be seen that, compared with single-layer shielding, the frequency dependence of the shielding coefficient of multi-layer shielding remains unchanged. The resistance of the shielding layer is directly proportional to the specific volume resistivity (ρI) of the material it is made of and inversely proportional to the layer thickness (di). The inductance is directly proportional to the permeability (μI) of the material. Furthermore, the formula can be expressed as:

[0090] ,

[0091] Where A is a scaling factor that depends on the shielding geometry.

[0092] In step S203, the first shielding effectiveness model is determined based on the equivalent circuit.

[0093] Based on the above calculations, a single-layer shield of a given thickness made of a metal with high permeability and low resistivity will have the greatest magnetic field shielding effectiveness. Further comparisons of the shielding effectiveness measurements of aluminum films of various thicknesses in alternating magnetic fields are shown in Table 1.

[0094] Table 1

[0095]

[0096] The table above shows that a single-layer shielding layer of a given thickness made of a metal with high permeability and low resistivity will have the greatest magnetic field shielding effectiveness. However, multi-layer coatings are not excluded; in such cases, it is necessary to optimize the technology and improve economic efficiency. Furthermore, theoretical models of thin-film shielding can only provide correct qualitative conclusions, but they cannot provide sufficiently accurate quantitative results.

[0097] In step S102, multiple samples are made for the first shielding effectiveness model, and the shielding effectiveness of the multiple samples is tested. Based on the first test results, the first shielding effectiveness model is determined or corrected to obtain the second shielding effectiveness model.

[0098] In some embodiments, magnetron sputtering and vacuum deposition methods are used to prepare thin-film shielding coatings because they allow control over the physical and mechanical parameters of the thin-film shielding coating during and after production, such as surface resistivity, volume resistivity, adhesion, thickness, and shielding effectiveness.

[0099] For electronic components made of polystyrene and plastics, providing the required conductive film parameters without heating the substrate is crucial. Since aluminum, copper, iron, nickel, and other materials can undergo plasma chemical reactions to obtain their nitrides, oxides, and other compounds, the structure and properties of the resulting conductive film can be further modified by controlling process parameters. Based on this, aluminum and copper were chosen as highly conductive materials, and iron and nickel were chosen as ferromagnetic materials.

[0100] Thin-film shielding coatings were prepared using magnetron sputtering and vacuum deposition methods, as these methods allow for control over the physical and mechanical parameters of the coating during and after production, such as surface resistivity, volume resistivity, adhesion, thickness, and shielding effectiveness. A list of representative test samples of single-layer shielding coatings and their characteristics is shown in Table 2.

[0101] Table 2

[0102]

[0103] Two-layer and three-layer conductive thin-film shielding samples were fabricated using a combination of aluminum, iron, and copper layers, as well as test samples of multi-layer shielding coatings. Subsequently, multiple samples were used to compare and analyze the optically transparent shielding layer.

[0104] Electron microscopy revealed that the transparent conductive thin film coating possesses a dispersed structure with nearly spherical particles. Figures 4 and 5 show the frequency dependence of the electromagnetic radiation reflection coefficient K and transmittance T of dispersed nickel films with different particle sizes. Figure 4 shows the T(λ) relationship for the dispersed nickel film on the glass substrate, where 1-3(T) correspond to particle sizes of 1.5, 2.0, and 3.0 nm. Figure 5 shows the R(λ) relationship for the dispersed nickel film on the glass substrate, where 1'-3'(R) correspond to particle sizes of 1.5, 2.0, and 3.0 nm.

[0105] In step S103, the second shielding effectiveness model is tested by applying it to the electronic components of the power battery. Based on the second test results, a third shielding effectiveness model is determined, and the electromagnetic compatibility of the power battery is tested based on the third shielding effectiveness model.

[0106] Here, the model corrected in step S102 is applied to the electronic components of the electric vehicle's power battery, and then the accuracy of the model is verified through actual testing. If problems occur, step S101 is repeated.

[0107] The embodiments of this application will now be described in full, taking into account experimental data.

[0108] First, the influence of different metal film materials on shielding performance was determined. To test the shielding effect of multilayer shielding coatings, two-layer and three-layer conductive film shielding samples were fabricated, using combinations of aluminum layers with iron and copper layers. A list of test samples and their characteristics for multilayer shielding coatings is provided. Data were collected and calculated according to the experimental procedures, and the experimental data at 25℃ were obtained, as shown in Table 3.

[0109] Table 3

[0110]

[0111] In samples 2.1–2.5, a layer of material with high magnetic permeability (iron) serves as both the outer and inner layer of the electromagnetic field source. Therefore, the effect of alternating layers in the shielding should be further investigated on its effectiveness.

[0112] Next, three samples were used to compare and analyze the optically transparent shielding layer. The first sample was a 50 μm thick copper grating with a period of 400 μm and a bandwidth of 200 μm, obtained by vacuum deposition and photolithography on a glass substrate. The second sample was a grating with the same geometric parameters prepared on an insulating rubber substrate. The third sample was obtained by magnetron deposition of a 0.25 μm thick semi-transparent silicon oxide film and a 3.0 nm thick nickel film on a glass substrate. The experimental data are summarized in Table 4.

[0113] Table 4

[0114]

[0115] Then, thin-film shielding coatings were prepared using magnetron sputtering and vacuum deposition methods. The physical and mechanical parameters of the thin-film shielding coatings, such as surface resistivity, volume resistivity, adhesion, thickness, and shielding effectiveness, were tested during and after production. The measurement results of the shielding effectiveness of the aforementioned test samples in electric and magnetic fields are shown in Tables 5 and 6.

[0116] Table 5

[0117]

[0118] Table 6

[0119]

[0120] Analysis of the experimental data in Tables 5 and 6 shows that the shielding effectiveness of the copper film is almost identical to that of the aluminum film of the same thickness. As for the steel film, its shielding effect is significantly reduced in this frequency range due to its high resistivity. Table 6 shows that sputtered copper films at frequencies of 3 MHz or higher produce sufficiently strong shielding effectiveness (over 10 dB), while for continuous copper films, this frequency is approximately 100 kHz, a difference of more than an order of magnitude. This difference is due to the structural characteristics of the films obtained through vacuum deposition. Electron microscopy studies show that the deposited films consist of fine grains, the size of which depends on various factors affecting metal deposition on the substrate. On average, the grain size can range from one unit to tens of micrometers. During film growth, the grains come into contact with each other; however, at the contact surface, the periodicity of the metal crystal structure is broken, forming a potential barrier between the grains, preventing current flow between them. These results are qualitatively consistent with theoretical calculations.

[0121] In summary, the embodiments of this application have the following beneficial effects:

[0122] (1) Improve the performance and safety of lithium-ion batteries: By accurately studying the effects of different materials and number of metal thin films on shielding effectiveness, we can guide the improvement of lithium-ion batteries from a mechanistic perspective, significantly improve the electromagnetic shielding effect of the battery, and thus increase its service life and safety. This is of great significance for promoting the commercial application of lithium-ion batteries.

[0123] (2) Lightweight and optimized design: Using a transparent metal film as the shielding material not only does not increase the weight and size of the equipment, but also allows for fine processing using photolithography, facilitating design and manufacturing. This method helps to achieve lightweight and optimized design of power batteries and related electronic devices, improving their overall performance.

[0124] (3) Enhancing the scalability of the technology: Thin film shielding coatings are prepared using advanced manufacturing technologies such as magnetron sputtering and vacuum deposition, and accurate analytical models are constructed. These technologies and models have broad applicability. They can be applied not only to the field of lithium-ion batteries, but also extended to the analysis of other types of power batteries (such as solid-state batteries), providing strong support for the design and optimization of related fields.

[0125] (4) Promote the formation and application of empirical models: Through repeated experiments and model verification, empirical analysis models on the shielding performance of metal thin films can be gradually built. These models will become important tools for the design, optimization and performance evaluation of power batteries, and will help improve product reliability and market competitiveness.

[0126] Based on the same inventive concept, this application also provides an electromagnetic compatibility testing device for a power battery using a metal thin film, which corresponds to the electromagnetic compatibility testing method for a power battery using a metal thin film in the first embodiment. Since the principle of the device in this application is similar to the electromagnetic compatibility testing method for a power battery using a metal thin film, the implementation of the device can refer to the implementation of the method, and the repeated parts will not be described again.

[0127] As shown in Figure 6, Figure 6 is a structural schematic diagram of the power battery electromagnetic compatibility testing device 600 using a metal thin film provided in an embodiment of this application. The power battery electromagnetic compatibility testing device 600 using a metal thin film includes:

[0131] Those skilled in the art should understand that the functions of each unit in the electromagnetic compatibility testing device 600 for power batteries using metal thin films shown in Figure 6 can be understood with reference to the relevant description of the electromagnetic compatibility testing method for power batteries using metal thin films described above. The functions of each unit in the electromagnetic compatibility testing device 600 for power batteries using metal thin films shown in Figure 6 can be implemented by a program running on a processor, or by specific logic circuits.

[0141] Where k is the mutual inductance coefficient of the coil, and I1……In represents the current in each shielding layer. The electromotive force appearing in each layer is a system containing n equations.

[0142] ,
