Improved electromagnetic dissipation of Fe doping LaCoO3 toward broadband microwave absorption

doi:10.1016/j.jmst.2021.06.058

Abstract

Abstract:

Perovskite LaCoO₃ is of great potential in electromagnetic wave absorption considering its outstanding dielectric loss as well as the existing magnetic response with the magnetic doping. However, the dissipation mechanism of the magnetic doping on the microwave absorption is lack of sufficient investigated. In this paper, LaCo_1-_xFe_xO₃ (x=0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.15, 0.2, 0.25, 0.3, LCFOs) perovskites with different Fe doping amounts were prepared successfully by the sol-gel method and subsequent heat treatment in the air atmosphere. The structure characterization carried out by the first-principles calculations shows the effect of Fe doping on the dielectric and magnetic properties of LCFOs and the strong hybridization of Co/Fe-3d with O-2p in the LCFOs system was successfully demonstrated. Particularly, when x=0.1 and the thickness is only 1.95 mm, the LaCo_0.9Fe_0.1O₃ exhibits the best microwave absorption performance with the minimum reflection loss (RL) value of about -41 dB. The typical samples achieve a broad effective absorption bandwidth (EAB) of 5.16 GHz (7.92-13.08 GHz), which covers the total X band (8-12 GHz). Considering that, the especial Fe doping perovskite is promising to be a candidate as efficient microwave absorbers.
