1. An electromagnetic waveguide comprising:
a first waveguide section;
a second waveguide section;
a first flange mounted on an end of the first waveguide section;
a second flange mounted on an end of the second waveguide section, wherein the first flange is connected to the second flange; and
an EMI shielding gasket mounted between the first flange and the second flange, wherein the EMI shielding gasket includes a self-supporting body of non-woven carbon nanotubes adapted to incorporate one or more apertures, wherein the self-supporting body of non-woven carbon nanotubes comprises a first aperture of the one or more apertures for electromagnetic radiation and a second aperture of the one or more apertures for receiving a fastener which connects to at least one of the first flange or the second flange.
