Abstract
A lightweight, heterogeneous, three-dimensional network-structured composite has been meticulously developed with the specific goal of optimizing impedance matching and elevating electromagnetic wave absorption properties. SiC nanowires-carbon composites were synthesized through a novel process involving combined carbothermal reduction and chemical vapor deposition, utilizing loofah sponge as the foundational material. Accessible and cost-effective organosilane waste was applied as the silicon source. The resulting composites manifest exceptional electromagnetic wave absorption performance with a minimum reflection loss of −46.34 dB and a wide effective bandwidth of 3.84 GHz at a thin thickness of 1.9 mm. Superior electromagnetic wave absorption is attributed to synergistic interplay of multiple interfacial polarizations, dipole polarization, conductive losses, and multiple reflections and scattering. This work presents an innovative pathway toward fabricating highly efficient electromagnetic wave-absorbing materials while effectively repurposing recycled waste.
期刊介绍:
Vacuum is an international rapid publications journal with a focus on short communication. All papers are peer-reviewed, with the review process for short communication geared towards very fast turnaround times. The journal also published full research papers, thematic issues and selected papers from leading conferences.
A report in Vacuum should represent a major advance in an area that involves a controlled environment at pressures of one atmosphere or below.
The scope of the journal includes:
1. Vacuum; original developments in vacuum pumping and instrumentation, vacuum measurement, vacuum gas dynamics, gas-surface interactions, surface treatment for UHV applications and low outgassing, vacuum melting, sintering, and vacuum metrology. Technology and solutions for large-scale facilities (e.g., particle accelerators and fusion devices). New instrumentation ( e.g., detectors and electron microscopes).
2. Plasma science; advances in PVD, CVD, plasma-assisted CVD, ion sources, deposition processes and analysis.
3. Surface science; surface engineering, surface chemistry, surface analysis, crystal growth, ion-surface interactions and etching, nanometer-scale processing, surface modification.
4. Materials science; novel functional or structural materials. Metals, ceramics, and polymers. Experiments, simulations, and modelling for understanding structure-property relationships. Thin films and coatings. Nanostructures and ion implantation.
