A method for manufacturing a ferrite sheet is provided. A method for manufacturing a ferrite sheet comprises the steps of: preparing a ferrite block body having a shape of a cylindrical or polygonal column; and cutting the ferrite block body to be separated into plate-shaped sheets having a predetermined thickness.

A wireless charging apparatus according to an embodiment may improve both the charging efficiency and the heat dissipation characteristics by use of a three-dimensional structure in a magnetic portion. In detail, the wireless charging efficiency may be increased and heat generated from the magnetic portion may be lowered by increasing the thickness of the magnetic portion near a coil portion, where electromagnetic energy is concentrated during wireless charging, and by reducing the thickness of the magnetic portion in the center, where the density of the electromagnetic energy is relatively low. Accordingly, the wireless charging apparatus can be efficiently used in a mobile means such as an electric vehicle that requires transmission of a large amount of power between a transmitter and a receiver.

An electrically conductive material configured having at least one opening of various unlimited geometries extending through its thickness is provided. The opening is designed to modify eddy currents that form within the surface of the material from interaction with magnetic fields that allow for wireless energy transfer therethrough. The opening may be configured as a cut-out, a slit or combination thereof that extends through the thickness of the electrically conductive material. The electrically conductive material is configured with the cut-out and/or slit pattern positioned adjacent to an antenna configured to receive or transmit electrical energy wirelessly through near-field magnetic coupling (NEMC). A magnetic field shielding material, such as a ferrite, may also be positioned adjacent to the antenna. Such magnetic shielding materials may be used to strategically block eddy currents from electrical components and circuitry located within a device.
