Commercial screen rooms do use copper screen.


Indeed - http://www.ets-lindgren.com/iDEI-Screen

I wonder, though, what the attenuation of that is vs the solid panels.

Screen - double layer electrically isolated
    Magnetic (14 kHz): 68 dB
    Electric (14kHz): 120 dB
    Planewave 450 MHz: 110 - 120 dB
    Planewave 1 GHz: 90 - 110 dB
    Microwave 10 GHz: 50 - 80 dB

vs a solid (Lindgren type 81) single layer

Magnetic Field

    20 dB @ 1 KHz
    56 dB @ 10 KHz
    100 dB @ 200 KHz

Electric Field    100 dB from 200 KHz
    thru 50 MHz

Plane Wave    100 dB @ 50 MHz to 1 GHz

Microwave     100 dB @ 10 GHz


So it looks like a single layer screen is not as good as a single layer solid..
