The development of a magnetic iron/nitrogen-doped graphitized carbon composite with boosted microwave attenuation ability as the wideband microwave absorber.

ABSTRACT: Magnetic carbon-based composites have been attractive candidates for electromagnetic (EM) absorption due to their dual magnetic and dielectric loss ability. In this study, a novel magnetic carbon consisting of N-doped graphitized carbon and magnetic Fe nanoparticles was produced. First, the graphitized carbon doped with N has been demonstrated to be an efficient way to strengthen the conductivity loss ability. Based on the N-doped graphitized carbon (NGC), the magnetic Fe nanoparticles were further decorated on the NGC, which was not only favored the dielectric loss ability but also introduced the magnetic loss ability. The electromagnetic absorbing properties of the NGC-Fe nanoparticles were evaluated in the frequency range of 2-18 GHz, and as expected, the sample exhibited the excellent wideband EM absorbing ability, with an effective absorption region of 5.2 GHz under a thickness of 1.2 mm. Ulilization of element doping method consisted to modify magnetic carbon material can be a candidate for producing wideband EM absorbers but showing thin thickness.
