Abstract:Double-layer materials were devised in order to improve the absorbing properties of electromagnetic wave absorbing plates. The double-layer wave absorbing materials are composed of a matching layer and an absorption layer. The matching layer is the surface layer through which most of the incident waves can enter, and the absorption layer beneath it plays an important role in incident wave attenuation. The total thickness of the double layer is the sum of the thicknesses of these two layers. Carbonyl iron (CI) and carbon black (CB) were used as absorbents in the matching and absorption layers, respectively. The structures of the CI and CB particles were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy; the dielectric properties and absorption mechanisms were also studied. In the testing frequency range 2-18 GHz, the results show that the double-layer absorbers have two absorption peaks, and the positions and values of these peaks change with the content level of the absorbents. When the mass fraction of CI in the matching layer is 50% and the total thickness of the absorber is 4 mm, the effective absorption band (below -8 dB) reaches 5.5, 5.8, and 6.5 GHz. Where the mass fraction of CB is 50% or 60% and the mass fraction of CI is 70%, the bandwidth with reflection loss below -4 dB is larger than 10 GHz. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
