Abstract xAl2O3-(1-x)Sr0.85Gd0.15TiO3(x=0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5) ceramics were fabricated by hot-press sintering. Their morphology, phase composition, conductivity, dielectric properties as well as microwave absorption performance were examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), multifunction digital four-probe meter and vector network analysis, respectively. The microwave absorption of as-prepared xAl2O3-(1-x)Sr0.85Gd0.15TiO3 ceramics demonstrates excellent microwave absorbability. It is unexpectedly found that with a thickness of only 0.346 mm, xAl2O3-(1-x)Sr0.85Gd0.15TiO3 (x=0.2) ceramic exhibits an absorption bandwidth of 3.7 GHz (8.7-12.4 GHz), being consequential to reflection loss less than -10 dB (over 90% of microwave absorption). It is as well discovered that the minimum reflection loss and absorption peak frequency of xAl2O3-(1-x)Sr0.85Gd0.15TiO3 (x=0.3) with a thickness of 0.436 mm were -45.43 dB and 11.3 GHz, respectively. The prominent microwave absorption performance of the ceramic with such a thin thickness can be attributed to strong interfacial polarization, dielectric frequency dispersion, and good electromagnetic impedance matching. It indicates that the xAl2O3-(1-x)Sr0.85Gd0.15TiO3 ceramics with appropriate Al2O3 mass fraction and thickness showing good potential for effective microwave absorbing materials.

Abstract In this article, spinel ferrite CoFe2O4 and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) composites are constructed by a facile one-step solvothermal method. The pure phase of CoFe2O4 particles is confirmed by X-ray diffraction patterns. Microstructure analysis demonstrates that monodisperse CoFe2O4 microspheres are wound by MWCNTs. By the introduction of CNTs, there is a significant enhancement in the imaginary part of permittivity (ε″) with the composites. The champion microwave absorption performance can be achieved in the composites by the balance of complex permittivity and permeability. When the mass fraction of CNTs is 3%, a minimum reflection loss (RLmin) of the composites is as high as -46.65 dB at 14.4 GHz at a thin thickness of 1.5 mm, and the corresponding effective absorption bandwidth below − 10 dB reaches 4.91 GHz ranging from 12.41 to 17.32 GHz which covers almost the whole Ku band (12.0–18.0 GHz). In other words, this as-synthesized composites show the most outstanding specific RLmin of -31.1 dB•mm− 1. Such superior microwave absorption behaviors of CoFe2O4/CNTs originate mainly from multiple dielectric relaxation processes, enhanced impedance matching and magnetic loss, as well as the considerable interface between mesoporous CoFe2O4 hollow microspheres and CNTs, and thereby promoting microwave reflection and scattering within the samples. Our results indicate that as-fabricated CoFe2O4/CNTs composites can be a promising microwave absorbent integrating with thin thickness, strong absorption ability, and broad bandwidth absorption.

Design of interface-controllable magnetic composite towards the wideband microwave absorber is greatly significance, however, it still remains challenging. Herein, we designed a spherical-like hybrids, using the Co3O4 and amorphous carbon as the core and shell, respectively. Then, the existed Co3O4 core could be totally reduced by the carbon shell, thus in CoxOy core (composed by Co and Co3O4). Of particular note, the ratios of Co and Co3O4 can be linearly tuned, suggesting the controlled interfaces, which greatly influences the interface loss behavior and electromagnetic absorption performance. The results revealed that the minimum reflection loss value (RLmin) of −39.4 dB could be achieved for the optimal CoxOy@C sample under a thin thickness of 1.4 mm. More importantly, the frequency region with RL < −10 dB was estimated to be 4.3 GHz, ranging from 13.7 to 18.0 GHz. The superior wideband microwave absorption performance was primarily attributed to the multiple interfacial polarization and matched impedance matching ability.

Abstract Microwave-absorbing materials with good microwave absorption performance are of great interest for military applications and human health, which is threatened by electromagnetic radiation pollution. Herein, the design and synthesis of multi-componential metal-hybridized graphene composites via freeze drying and pyrolysis of ferrocene hydrazone complex precursor are reported. Various magnetic nanoparticles are loaded on reduced graphene oxide (rGO) via controlling their pyrolysis temperature. The complex electromagnetic parameters of these hybrids are therefore regulated by the hybrid components. Among them, rGO hybridized by the sea-island-like Fe2O3/Fe3O4/FeNi3 multi-componential metals shows a good balance of dielectric and magnetic constants. Thus, the improved impedance matching with free space brings about a superior electromagnetic wave absorption performance, especially on the effective absorption bandwidth. The minimum reflection loss (RL) of the hybrids is as low as −40.3 dB at 11 GHz with the RL bandwidth of −10 dB being 4.55 GHz (from 9.25 to 13.8 GHz).

Hollow magnetic structures have great potential to be used in the microwave absorbing field. Herein, Fe3O4 hollow spheres with different levels of hollowness were synthesized by the hydrothermal method under Ostwald ripening effect. In addition to their microstructures, the microwave absorption properties of such spheres were investigated. The results show that the grain size and hollowness of Fe3O4 hollow spheres both increase as the reaction time increases. With increasing hollowness, the attenuation ability of electromagnetic wave of Fe3O4 spheres increases first and then decreases, finally increases sharply after the spheres break down. Samples with strong attenuation ability can achieve good impedance matching, which it does preferentially as the absorber thickness increases. Fe3O4 hollow spheres show the best microwave absorption performance when the reaction time is 24 h. The minimum reflection loss (RL (min)) can reach −40 dB, while the thickness is only 3.2 mm.

Microwave Absorption Performance

AbstractCarbides/carbon composites are emerging as a new kind of binary dielectric systems with good microwave absorption performance. Herein, we obtain a series of tungsten carbide/carbon composites through a simple solvent-free strategy, where the solid mixture of dicyandiamide (DCA) and ammonium metatungstate (AM) is employed as the precursor. Ultrafine cubic WC1−x nanoparticles (3–4 nm) are in situ generated and uniformly dispersed on carbon nanosheets. This configuration overcomes some disadvantages of conventional carbides/carbon composites and is greatly helpful for electromagnetic dissipation. It is found that the weight ratio of DCA to AM can regulate chemical composition of these composites, while less impact on the average size of WC1−x nanoparticles. With the increase in carbon nanosheets, the relative complex permittivity and dielectric loss ability are constantly enhanced through conductive loss and polarization relaxation. The different dielectric properties endow these composites with distinguishable attenuation ability and impedance matching. When DCA/AM weight ratio is 6.0, the optimized composite can produce good microwave absorption performance, whose strongest reflection loss intensity reaches up to − 55.6 dB at 17.5 GHz and qualified absorption bandwidth covers 3.6–18.0 GHz by manipulating the thickness from 1.0 to 5.0 mm. Such a performance is superior to many conventional carbides/carbon composites.
