Abstract
A facile and scalable polymer bubbling technique was used to fabricate three-dimensional nickel-embedded nitrogen-doped porous carbon foams (3D Ni@NPCFs) exhibiting high-performance electromagnetic wave absorption. The 3D Ni@NPCFs were characterized by their unique 3D interconnected porosity and the cooperative effect of conductive magnetic Ni nanoparticles and nitrogen incorporation. The optimal sample achieved reflection loss (RL) of −47.20 dB at 6.05 GHz and an effective absorption bandwidth (EAB) of 7.4 GHz within the absorber thickness of 3.0 mm. This superior performance is attributed to the unprecedented synergistic interplay between the tailored 3D porous network, which facilitates multiple scattering and prolonged wave propagation, and the embedded Ni nanoparticles coupled with nitrogen doping, which enhances both the magnetic and dielectric losses. Furthermore, the optimal sample demonstrated a simulated radar cross-sectional reduction of up to 28.43 dBm2. The 3D Ni@NPCFs show great promise as high-performance absorbers for electromagnetic protection applications.
期刊介绍:
The journal Carbon is an international multidisciplinary forum for communicating scientific advances in the field of carbon materials. It reports new findings related to the formation, structure, properties, behaviors, and technological applications of carbons. Carbons are a broad class of ordered or disordered solid phases composed primarily of elemental carbon, including but not limited to carbon black, carbon fibers and filaments, carbon nanotubes, diamond and diamond-like carbon, fullerenes, glassy carbon, graphite, graphene, graphene-oxide, porous carbons, pyrolytic carbon, and other sp2 and non-sp2 hybridized carbon systems. Carbon is the companion title to the open access journal Carbon Trends. Relevant application areas for carbon materials include biology and medicine, catalysis, electronic, optoelectronic, spintronic, high-frequency, and photonic devices, energy storage and conversion systems, environmental applications and water treatment, smart materials and systems, and structural and thermal applications.
