Abstract: The construction of one-dimensional (1D) sulfides has attracted extensive attention for improving microwave absorption (MA) performance owing to the anisotropic conductive networks. However, the synthesis of conductive 1D hierarchical materials with unique interfacial polarization and excellent MA properties remains challenging. In this study, cable-like MoS2/Ni3S2 was synthesized by a one-step hydrothermal strategy. The complex permittivity of the binary composites could be improved by tuning the thickness of the MoS2 coating. Importantly, the construction of heterogeneous contacts by MoS2 and Ni3S2 contributed to enhanced polarization loss, and the charge distribution was validated by electron holography. The wide efficient absorption bandwidth can reach above 4.8 GHz at a thin thickness. These new discoveries shed light on novel structures for 1D sulfide materials and the design of functional core-shell composites for microwave absorption.
