Abstract
Improving the performance of LaMnO3 perovskite is essential to make it an efficient and ultra-light electromagnetic wave (EMW) absorbing material. In this work, LaMn1-xFexO3 powders (x = 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5) were synthesized by controlling the doping of Fe3+ ions at the B-site using the citric acid-assisted sol-gel method. The effects of Fe3+ ions doping content on crystal structures, magnetic properties and EMW absorption performances were investigated. The obtained LMFO-4 sample exhibited a minimal reflection loss of -54.99 dB at 13.68 GHz, with an adequate absorption bandwidth (RL < -10 dB) spanning 4.56 GHz (11.6∼16.16 GHz) at a matching layer thickness of 2.0 mm. The exceptional EMW absorption performances could be attributed to the Jahn-Teller effect, the double-exchange interactions and the magnetic interactions of Mn and Fe ions. Furthermore, the Computer Simulation Technology (CST) simulations demonstrated that the Radar Cross Section (RCS) value of LMFO-4 was lower than -25.10 dBm2 across angles ranging from -90° to 90° with a thickness of 2.0 mm, indicating the remarkable radar wave attenuation ability. These insights provided valuable guidance for advancing perovskite-based materials tailored for efficient and ultra-light electromagnetic wave absorption applications.
