Abstract

It is reported that developing microwave absorbers with impedance matching and high efficiency electromagnetic absorbing performance is still extremely challenging. Herein, we report the microwave absorption properties of single-layer and double-layer wave absorbent materials based on hydroxyl iron (CIP) and graphene nanosheets (GNSs) composites. The superior microwave absorption performance of the double-layer absorbers should be attributed to the greater impedance matching characteristic of the GNSs/CIP composite layer and the better dielectric loss ability of graphene layer as well as the increase of magnetic loss of hydroxyl iron (CIP). The results show that the double-layer absorbers, consisting of 35 vol% GNSs/CIP composite as matching layer and GNSs as absorption layer, with total thickness of 2 mm, exhibited a maximum reflection loss (RL) of −23.2 dB at 13.39 GHz, as well as an effective bandwidth below −10 dB of as wide as 5.54 GHz from 11.23 GHz to 16.67 GHz. These double layer structures based on carbonyl-iron (CIP) and graphene nanosheets (GNSs) composites could be helpful for designing new microwave absorbers with high absorption performance.
