Abstract
The development of high-performance absorbing materials characterized by “thin thickness, low density, broad frequency range, and strong absorption” remains a significant challenge. In this research, the magnetron sputtering method was used to deposit a series of nano-granular films with different SiO2 contents onto carbon foam, creating hierarchical CMF/(FeNi)x(SiO2)1-x composites. The microstructure of the nano-granular film reveals that the FeNi nano-grains are interconnected and embedded within an amorphous SiO2 phase matrix. Numerous heterogeneous interfaces are formed as the SiO2 phase refines the FeNi nano-grains. When the SiO2 content in the granular film is 5 %, the CMF/(FeNi)0.95(SiO2)0.05 sample exhibits the best absorption performance, achieving a minimum reflection loss of −56.3 dB at 2.5 mm and a maximum effective absorption bandwidth of 8 GHz at 2.7 mm. The combined contributions of conductivity loss, dielectric polarization loss, and magnetic loss, along with multiple reflections of electromagnetic waves caused by the porous network structure, showcase the remarkable wave absorption capacity of CMF/(FeNi)x(SiO2)1-x.
