Abstract
The advancement of military technology, 5G communication, and electronic equipment has increased the demand for efficient electromagnetic wave absorption materials. Calcium manganate (CaMnO3) is a commonly used dielectric absorber due to its excellent dielectric polarization effect. However, traditional ceramic materials like CaMnO3 have low conductivity, making it difficult to achieve impedance matching and electromagnetic loss simultaneously. In this work, to address this issue and create ideal wave-absorbing materials, one-dimensional La-doped CaMnO3 materials were synthesized using a simple biological template hydrothermal method. By studying the relationship between doping content and electromagnetic parameters, it was found that the La-doped CaMnO3 material exhibited excellent electromagnetic wave absorption properties, with a minimum reflection loss (RLmin) of −73.62 dB and a maximum effective absorption bandwidth of 3.3 GHz in the X-band. The introduction of La elements, which have different electronegativities from Ca ions, altered the electron cloud distribution in the sample, leading to the formation of electric dipoles that disrupt charge distribution and dissipate electromagnetic waves. The dielectric loss in fibrous La-doped CaMnO3 is mainly due to interfacial polarization. The fibrous structure allows for increased contact area with the air medium, while the porous structure introduces air bubbles that alter the dielectric properties between the sample and the air medium. This not only enhances impedance characteristics to some extent but also triggers interfacial polarization. Both of these factors help improve the material's ability to absorb electromagnetic waves. The successful creation of this one-dimensional absorbing material opens up possibilities for developing new one-dimensional absorbing materials using a straightforward method.
