NiMnO 3 Anchored on Reduced Graphene Oxide Nanosheets: A New High-Performance Microwave Absorbing Material.

With the increasing influence of electromagnetic radiation on precision instruments and organisms, there is an urgent need for research on lightweight and high-strength electromagnetic wave absorbing materials. This study has probed into a new composite absorbing material based on reduced graphene oxide (rGO)-NiMnO₃, where the like-core-shell NiMnO₃ is anchored on the rGO nanosheets to significantly improve the electromagnetic wave dissipation ability of the composite material using the inter-component dipole polarization and interface polarization. At the same time, NiMnO₃ can effectively adjust the impedance matching ratio of rGO so that electromagnetic waves can effectively enter the absorbing material. At a thickness of 3.73 mm, the maximum absorption strength of rGO-NiMnO₃ reaches −61.4 dB at 6.6 GHz; at a thickness of 2.5 mm, the adequate absorption bandwidth is 10.04–18.00 GHz, achieving a full coverage for the Ku band. As a new option for preparing lightweight and broadband electromagnetic wave absorbing materials, rGO-NiMnO₃ is an ideal material for electromagnetic wave protection. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
