Abstract
Devices and methods for protecting electro-optical instruments includes a transparent substrate and a conductive film layer on the substrate. The film layer may be perforated with an array of holes and may be configured to attenuate RF/microwave electromagnetic radiation. The devices may include a plurality of optical waveguides having a first end and a second end, wherein the first end of each optical waveguide is disposed over the substrate and passes through a respective hole of the array of holes such that each hole includes at least one optical waveguide. The waveguide may be configured to capture incident light from the second end and guide the incident light to the first end through the hole.
