Tunable Optical Properties and Relaxor Behavior in Ni/Ba Co-Doped NaNbO3 Ceramics: Pathways Toward Multifunctional Applications

In this study, Ni/Ba co-doped NaNbO3 ceramics (NBNNOx) were synthesized using a solid-state method to explore the effects of Ni2+ and Ba2+ ion substitution on the structural, optical, and dielectric properties of NaNbO3. X-ray diffraction (XRD) confirmed that the ceramics retained an orthorhombic structure, with crystallinity improving as the doping content (x) increased. Significant lattice distortions induced by the Ni/Ba co-doping were observed, which were essential for preserving the perovskite structure. Raman spectroscopy revealed local structural distortions, influencing optical properties and promoting relaxor behavior. Diffuse reflectance measurements revealed a significant decrease in band gap energy from 3.34 eV for undoped NaNbO3 to 1.08 eV at x = 0.15, highlighting the impact of co-doping on band gap tunability. Dielectric measurements indicated relaxor-like behavior at room temperature for x = 0.15, characterized by frequency-dependent anomalies in permittivity and dielectric loss, likely due to ionic disorder and structural distortions. These findings demonstrate the potential of Ni/Ba co-doped NaNbO3 ceramics for lead-free perovskite solar cells and other functional devices, where tunable optical and dielectric properties are highly desirable.

Molecular dynamics simulation of friction in DLC films with different Cr doping levels

This study systematically investigates the impact of varying Cr doping levels on the friction properties of DLC films using molecular dynamics simulations. The results demonstrate that under identical friction velocities and load conditions, the friction force of DLC films significantly decreases when the Cr doping content reaches 16.5 %. High Cr doping levels lead to the formation of Cr atomic clusters at the interface, hindering contact and reducing the number of interface bonds. These clusters act as lubricants, filling the interface gaps and thereby reducing the friction force. Internal stress calculations indicate that Cr doping effectively reduces the average internal stress of DLC films. For DLC films with lower Cr doping levels, the friction force exhibits similar trends under different friction velocities, while films with higher Cr doping levels show a more pronounced response, with friction force increasing at higher velocities. Increasing the load significantly raises the friction force, especially for DLC films with higher Cr doping levels. Furthermore, high Cr doping levels under high loads lead to significant structural damage and adhesive wear. This study provides theoretical and technical references for optimizing the friction performance of DLC films.

Controlled fabrication of hierarchical porous carbon nanospheres with high doped nitrogen content for high-performance adsorbent of biomacromolecule

Constructing nitrogen-doped porous carbons with high specific surface area, rapid mass transfer channels, and positive charge is a crucial requirement for high-performance adsorbents. Herein, by the kinetic self-assembly synthesis strategy, we prepared nitrogen-doped hierarchical porous carbon spheres (N-HPCS) with adjustable pore structure, high specific surface area, and high nitrogen doping content (8.88 %). By using ethylenediamine as an assisted polymerization and assembly agent, the hydrolysis and condensation rate of tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) as the silica source and the condensation rate of 3-aminophenol and formaldehyde as the phenolic resin precursor were controlled by adjusting ammonia volume as the alkaline catalyst to tune kinetic self-assembly of silica and phenolic resin components, thus achieving their simultaneous or sequential nucleus and growth. After carbonization and selective silica etching, three types of carbon nanospheres with center-radial pores, hollow center-radial pores and hollow structure were obtained. High nitrogen doping content endowed the nanospheres with positive charge. Through adsorption experiments on the bovine serum albumin (BSA) and Hemoglobin (Hb) as typical biological macromolecules, hollow carbon nanospheres with center-radial pores exhibited excellent adsorption performance for BSA(622.34 mg g−1) and Hb(759.96 mg g−1). Our fabricated N-HPCS may become a potential candidate for high-performance adsorption materials.

Study of Structural, Thermal and Electrical Properties of Sr-Doped CaMnO<sub>3</sub>

Sr-doped CaMnO3 materials have wide applications due to their thermal and electrical properties. The importance of the synthesis of Sr-doped CaMnO3 material for various applications encourages researchers to evaluate and refine the synthesis process. In this study, Ca1-xSrxMnO3 (x = 0; 0.05; 0.1; 0.15; 0.2) system has been prepared by sol-gel method followed by conventional sintering process at 850°C for 8 hr. A thorough discussion has been made on the outcomes derived from the investigation on the structural, electrical, and thermal properties of Sr-doped CaMnO3 system using powder x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy, DC fourprobe method, thermal expansion studies, and thermoelectric power analyses. The XRD patterns of all prepared samples exhibited single phase with orthorhombic crystal structure (space group Pnma). Rietveld refinements were performed for all the patterns by using Fullprof software to extract the structural properties. The values of unit cell volume of samples tend to increase with the increment of dopant concentration, whereas the crystallite size values were decreased with dopant concentration. The microstructures of all the samples were studied using SEM, and elemental compositions were confirmed from the EDS results. Linear thermal expansion coefficients of all the samples were found to have moderate values in the temperature range from 30°C to 800°C. The electrical properties of all the system of samples were studied in the temperature range from 30°C to 400°C using DC fourprobe conductivity setup. It was found that all the samples exhibited semiconductor nature. Sr-content on the A-site suppress the electrical resistivity up to 10% of concentration and 5% dopant content exhibited the lowest electrical resistivity. The values of Seebeck coefficient found to vary from -160 µV/K to -124 µV/K with the increase of dopant content in the parent compound.

High‐Performance Na‐Storage and Sodiation Behavior Identification in Cellulose‐Derived Hard Carbon by High‐Resolution Element Mapping Microscopy

Nowadays, hard carbon is one of the most promising anode materials for sodium‐ion batteries. However, the Na‐storage performance of hard carbon varies for different precursors and synthetic processes due to disparities in the dopant content, dimensions, and categories of defects, graphitic domains, which lead to controversial explanations for the energy storage mechanism. Herein, self‐freestanding membrane of cellulose‐derived carbon fibers is presented, delivering a reversible Na‐storage capacity of 330 mAh g−1 at 50 mA g−1 due to abundant ordered graphitic zones with enlarged interlayer spacings around 0.39 ± 0.03 nm. Benefiting from a robust solid electrolyte interphase layer rich in NaF nanocrystals, the membrane also holds a superior rate capability of 100 mAh g−1 at 2 A g−1 and long‐term cycling stability with capacity retention of 82.6% at 1.5 A g−1 for 4000 cycles. A clear sodiation behavior of Na+ intercalation into enlarged carbon graphitic layers at the slope step above 0.10 V and Na cluster evolution in the micropores at the plateau step around 0.01–0.10 V is disclosed by high‐resolution element mapping microscopy, different from the accepted mechanism of Na+ intercalation into graphitic layers at the plateau step.

Enhancing lithium storage performance of Carbon/SiOx composite via coating edge-nitrogen-enriched carbon

Silicon oxide (SiOx) exhibits promising potential as a lithium-ion battery anode. However, its practical application is impeded by low electrical conductivity and significant volumetric expansion. To overcome these limitations, we developed a novel co-precipitation and selectively etching approach that leveraged the nitrogen-retaining effect of ZnNCN to prepare an edge-nitrogen-enriched carbon/SiOx composite (NEC@LC-SiOx). This NEC@LC-SiOx showed enhanced electrical conductivity and reduced volumetric expansion. Our innovative approach effectively prevented excessive decomposition of nitrogen species, resulting in a high nitrogen doping content of 21.67 at.% while maintaining a stable structure and mitigated volume expansion during charging and discharging. Consequently, the prepared NEC@LC-SiOx exhibited excellent performance as an anode material for lithium-ion batteries, demonstrating a high reversible specific capacity of 802 mAh/g and outstanding rate capability. This work presents a novel strategy for designing high-performance SiOx anode materials.

Performance prediction of IPMC modified with SiO2-SGO based on backpropagation neural network

Ionic polymer–metal composites (IPMCs) constitute a new type of artificial muscle material that is commonly used in bionic soft robots and medical devices because of its small driving voltage and considerable deformation. However, IPMCs are limited by performance issues such as low output force and small operating time away from water. Silicon dioxide sulfonated graphene (SiO2-SGO) particles are often used to improve the performance of polymer membranes because of their hydrophilicity and high chemical stability. Reported here is the addition of SiO2-SGO particles prepared by in situ hydrolysis to perfluorosulfonic acid in order to improve the IPMC properties. Also, a predictive model was constructed based on a backpropagation neural network, with the SiO2-SGO doping amount and the IPMC excitation voltage in the input layer and the driving displacement in the output layer. The results show that the IPMC prepared with 1.0 wt. % doping content performed the best, with a maximum output displacement of 47.7 mm. The correlation coefficient (R2) was 0.9842 and the mean square error was 0.000 370 73, which show that the predictive model has high predictive accuracy and is suitable for predicting the performance of the SiO2-SGO-modified IPMC.

Relations of magnetic and electrochemical anti-corrosion properties of (Zr, Ti)-doped NdCeFeB magnets with Ti content

Zr and Ti were co-doped into NdCeFeB sintered magnets to improve the magnetic and electrochemical anti-corrosion properties. Both performance are found closely associated with Ti content. At 0.15 wt%Ti, the sample shows higher coercivity without energy product loss compared to the Ti-free sample and other Ti additions, due to the matrix-phases refinement and optimized distribution of RE-rich phases. For this sample, its corrosion current density and charge transfer resistance are 1.94 μA/cm2 and 1734 Ω•cm2 in NaCl solution respectively, which exhibits obviously improved corrosion resistance in comparison with the Ti-free magnet. The charge transfer resistance has been increased by 45.6 %. The apparently improved corrosion resistance is mainly attributed to the decreased amount of active reaction channels and the enhanced protective effect of TiO2, arising from the increment of Ti-rich precipitates. When the content of Ti dopant exceeds 0.5 wt%, the beneficial effects of Ti are overshadowed by the harmful effect of the density reduction on anti-corrosion performance, and the charge transfer resistance decreased with further increasing the dopant content. The new findings provide a theoretical basis for improving physicochemical properties of NdCeFeB magnet.

Fracture behaviors and crack propagation anisotropy in multi-ions modified bismuth titanate ferroelectrics

Bismuth titanate (BIT) is widely considered a promising lead-free piezoelectric material for advanced high-temperature applications. Despite significant advances in high-performance BIT ferroelectrics, there remains little understanding of mechanical properties including fracture failure and crack propagation behaviors, hindering the optimization of stability and reliability for next-generation high-temperature ferroelectrics. In this work, we investigated mechanical fracture and crack propagation behaviors of a type of high-performance bismuth titanate-based ceramic (Bi3.96Ce0.04Ti3–2xWxNbxO12, BCTWN) with different doping contents and electric poling states. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) results reveal that the BCTWN ceramics possess a single ferroelectric phase and exhibit layered crystal structures characterized by periodic fringe features. In addition, the striped domain structures are observed on the surface of plate-like grains. Mechanical measurements indicate that fracture behaviors of BCTWN ceramics are significantly affected by doping contents. The ceramics with the largest grain size present inferior microstructure with more defects, endowing the lowest bending strength and fracture toughness. For the samples with different poling states, strong anisotropy in crack propagation and fracture toughness is observed, attributed to the different domain switching mechanisms driven by local incompatible stress fields, which is experimentally validated by the intriguing evolutions of striped domain structures around crack tips. This work advances our understanding of the fracture and crack propagation mechanisms of BIT-based ceramics and provides insight into tailoring the mechanical behaviors through doping and poling strategies.

3D Printing Materials Mimicking Human Tissues after Uptake of Iodinated Contrast Agents for Anthropomorphic Radiology Phantoms.

(1) Background: 3D printable materials with accurately defined iodine content enable the development and production of radiological phantoms that simulate human tissues, including lesions after contrast administration in medical imaging with X-rays. These phantoms provide accurate, stable and reproducible models with defined iodine concentrations, and 3D printing allows maximum flexibility and minimal development and production time, allowing the simulation of anatomically correct anthropomorphic replication of lesions and the production of calibration and QA standards in a typical medical research facility. (2) Methods: Standard printing resins were doped with an iodine contrast agent and printed using a consumer 3D printer, both (resins and printer) available from major online marketplaces, to produce printed specimens with iodine contents ranging from 0 to 3.0% by weight, equivalent to 0 to 3.85% elemental iodine per volume, covering the typical levels found in patients. The printed samples were scanned in a micro-CT scanner to measure the properties of the materials in the range of the iodine concentrations used. (3) Results: Both mass density and attenuation show a linear dependence on iodine concentration (R2 = 1.00), allowing highly accurate, stable, and predictable results. (4) Conclusions: Standard 3D printing resins can be doped with liquids, avoiding the problem of sedimentation, resulting in perfectly homogeneous prints with accurate dopant content. Iodine contrast agents are perfectly suited to dope resins with appropriate iodine concentrations to radiologically mimic tissues after iodine uptake. In combination with computer-aided design, this can be used to produce printed objects with precisely defined iodine concentrations in the range of up to a few percent of elemental iodine, with high precision and anthropomorphic shapes. Applications include radiographic phantoms for detectability studies and calibration standards in projective X-ray imaging modalities, such as contrast-enhanced dual energy mammography (abbreviated CEDEM, CEDM, TICEM, or CESM depending on the equipment manufacturer), and 3-dimensional modalities like CT, including spectral and dual energy CT (DECT), and breast tomosynthesis.

Coral-like Co-doped ZnO nanostructures for enhanced triethylamine detection

In this work, coral-like Co-doped ZnO nanostructures were obtained using simple precipitation and hydrothermal methods. Co-doping reduced the composite particle size to 20 nm, and the controlled growth direction formed a larger adsorption area. The gas sensor results suggest that the maximum response to triethylamine at 200 °C was achieved at 5 mol% doping content. The sensor also performed well for the 30-day stability test, displaying excellent selectivity and repeatability. Besides, 5CZO showed a response-recovery time of 52/70 s and a good response to different gas concentrations. The doping mechanism for the improved gas sensing performance with triethylamine was thoroughly investigated.

Broadband 1.45–2.1 μm luminescence in Er3+/Tm3+/Yb3+ tri-doped bismuth-germanate glasses

Optical properties of novel Er3+-doped, Er3+/Yb3+ and Er3+/Tm3+ co-doped and Er3+/Tm3+/Yb3+ tri-doped bismuth-germanate glasses were fabricated. Thermal characterization by differential scanning calorimetry showed the suitability of the glass for fiber drawing. Tri-doped sample presented a broadband luminescence spectrum ranging from 1450 to 2100 nm when it was excited by 980 and 1480 nm laser diodes. Energy transfer mechanisms from the donor (Yb3+, Er3+) to acceptor (Er3+, Tm3+) ions were found out to be the cause of the intense luminescence with broad bandwidth which can be tailored through doping content and concentration. It was observed that the Tm3+ addition helps broadening the luminescence spectrum, while the Yb3+ incorporation enhances the emission intensity. This study provides insightful contributions to the possibility of signal amplification in L + U-bands and beyond, up to 2100 nm.

Synergistic modulation of SrTiO3-TiO2 colossal permittivity system by internal lattice defects and phase composition: Experimental and theoretical investigations

The SrTiO3–TiO2 composite ceramics with different contents of La doping were fabricated by traditional solid-state sintering methods. The performance of the colossal permittivity ceramics was enhanced by the synergistic design of the internal defect structure and phase composition. When the doping content is 2%, SrTiO3–TiO2 composite ceramics possessed a colossal permittivity (ԑr ∼ 1.1 × 105), low dielectric loss (tanδ ∼ 0.050) and favorable thermal stability (−70 °C-150 °C, ΔC/C25°C ≤ ±15%). Phase structure analysis suggested that a TiO2 secondary phase was induced at the grain boundaries of SrTiO3 phase with the addition of La3+ ions. XPS and dielectric behavior analyses revealed that oxygen vacancies and lattice defects formed by inhomogeneous ion-doping act to modulate the dielectric behavior in ceramics. The IBLC interfacial effects in relation to semiconductor grains and insulation grain boundaries are the main contributors to the colossal permittivity (CP) properties of ceramics, and the contribution of the IBLC effects becomes more prominent with increasing doping content. On the basis of first-principles analysis, the ceramic lattice undergoes severe deformation when the La content is increased, and the gathering of electrons at oxygen vacancies and defects is evident. As a result, it leads to enhanced grain semiconducting properties and interfacial effects, which facilitate colossal permittivity and low dielectric loss for ceramics. The results are prospective in the application of CP ceramics.

Highly efficient Y3-xBaxAl5-xSixO12:Cr3+ near-infrared phosphor for plant growth

Near-infrared (NIR) phosphors enhance the growth of plants due to their superior penetration. However, relatively high thermal quenching and low quantum efficiency restrict the development of NIR phosphors. In this study, Y3-xBaxAl5-xSixO12:Cr3+ phosphors (YBAS:Cr3+) with varying concentrations of Ba2+-Si4+ and Cr3+ were studied. The results demonstrate high-purity phases are obtained with doping Ba2+-Si4+ and Cr3+. The Ba2+-Si4+ doping enhances crystallinity and near-spherical particles are synthesized. The theoretical calculations indicate a significant reduction in bandgap with doping Ba2+-Si4+, resulting in impurity levels appearing in the valence band region. The state density calculation shows that the band formation is contributed by all elements. The optimal Ba2+-Si4+ doping concentration is 0.05 mol and the Cr3+ doping content is 0.09 mol. The critical distance (R c ) is 16.62 Å. Dipole–dipole interactions and radiation reabsorptions are main concentration quenching mechanisms. Lattice distortions occur with the introduction of Ba2+-Si4+ and the value (D r ) is 0.052. The YBAS:0.09Cr3+ phosphor shows a crystal field strength with a Dq/B value of 2.76. The phosphor exhibits a high quantum efficiency (73.42%), superior thermal quenching resistance (∼70% initial intensity at 150°C), and a suitable fluorescence lifetime (130.04 µs). A near-infrared pc-LED with YBAS:0.09Cr3+ phosphor displays a high output power of 167.12 mW and a moderate conversion efficiency of 3.82%.

Luminescence enhancement of near-infrared Cr3+ doped solid solution phosphor via Al3+ substitution for light-emitting diode applications

The luminescence enhancement of near-infrared (NIR) emissive material is critical in emerging applications. In this work, we have prepared an NIR-emitting K2NaSc1-x-yAlxF6:yCr3+ (denoted as KNS1-x-yAxF:yCr) solid solution phosphor via the introduction of Al3+, enhancing luminescence in a high-temperature solid-state reaction. The resultant solid solution phosphor exhibited a broad NIR emission band with a high internal quantum efficiency (IQE = 81.1 %) and an enhanced photoluminescence thermal stability (93 % at 423 K) under 432 nm excitation. When compared with the Al-free sample, the IQE and thermal stability are increased by 45.9 % and 22.4 %, respectively. The optimal Cr3+ and Al3+ doping content has been determined and a composition-optimized KNS0.70A0.25F6:0.05Cr phosphor is demonstrated by fabricating an NIR pc-LED device as a light source for light-emitting diode applications.

Synergistic enhancement of electrical characteristics in Sr2+ and Zr4+ Co-doped BaTiO3 ceramics through multiphase coexistence regulation at room temperature

BaTiO3 (BT)-based ceramics have recently become one of the most promising lead-free piezoelectric ceramics. However, its overall performance still falls short of meeting the demands for multifunctional applications. Although phase boundary regulation can enhance the piezoelectric properties, BT ceramics have very separate phase transition temperatures for different phases. This leads to the difficulty of achieving multiphase coexistence at room temperature (RT). In this work, based on doping 0.08 mol Zr4+, the lead-free Ba1-xSrxTi0.92Zr0.08O3 [x = 0, 0.04, 0.08, 0.12, 0.16, 0.20 (mol), B1-xSxTZ] piezoelectric ceramics were prepared using the solid-state reaction method, and the effect of the Sr2+ doping level on the multiphase structural evolution and piezoelectric properties was systematically investigated. The results demonstrated that with the increase in the Sr2+ doping content, multiphase coexistence within the B1-xSxTZ ceramics was successfully achieved at RT. Moreover, it showed significant synergistic improvements in piezoelectric, dielectric, and electric-field-induced strain properties. At the doping level of about x = 0.16 mol, the key performance metrics of the piezoelectric ceramics were optimal. The d33 at room temperature reached ∼447 pC/N, kp ∼0.49, and εr ∼4649. Under an applied electric field of 10 kV/cm, Spos was ∼0.092 %, and d33∗ was ∼895 p.m./V. Therefore, this study provides new insights into the progress of advanced lead-free piezoelectric materials for multifunctional applications.

Preparation, characterization and biological activity of Co-doped ZnO nanostructured thin film: A comprehensive study on its photo-physical properties and antimicrobial efficacy against food-borne pathogen

The Co@ZnO thin film deposited on glass substrate with dopant contents of cobalt ranging from 0 to 10 % were fabricated using spray pyrolysis coating method. The prepared nanocomposite thin film was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, UV–vis and Raman spectroscopy. Some surfaces structural probing of the deposited samples confirmed nanolamination of hexagonal wurtzite phase of ZnO with no other impurity phases and high adherence on the soda lime glass substrate. Average grain sizes (56–43 nm) and lattice strain of the films were found to be tailored with the variation of Co-dopant content, signifying phonon confinement or defect/disorder caused by the Co-dopant impurity on the ZnO host particle owing to the impurity levels and oxygen vacancy states. The film demonstrated high optical transmittance with enhanced photoabsorbtion and narrow optical band gap (3.24–2.64 eV) with increasing Co-dopant content. In evaluating its antibacterial efficacy, the Co@ZnO thin film was tested at different dopant concentration against Bacillus cereus (foodborne pathogen). The result revealed that the films exhibits excellent inhibitory effect on the pathogen, with highest activity obtained at 10 % Co@ZnO. Furthermore, a more improved inhibitory activity was recorded when at 10 % Co@ZnO dopant was exposed to UV irradiation.

Ternary composite fluorescent films with tunable color and long lifetime based on efficient TS-FRET

Multi-color long-wavelength organic afterglow materials are of great significance in anti-counterfeiting, but their preparation is still challenging. In this paper, a series of room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) films were constructed with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as rigid matrix and 9,10-diaminophenanthrene (DAphe) as guest molecule. Surprisingly, by adjusting the doping content of DAphe, their RTP emission peak width could be adjusted accordingly, and the lifetime was up to 3.25 s. Their dopant content dependent and excitation wavelength dependent luminescence characteristics and theoretical calculation results indicated that the observed broad emission peaks of RTP might be attributed to multiple luminescence centers generated by the aggregation of guest molecules. Interestingly, by doping several suitable fluorescent dyes screened as energy acceptors, multi-color, long-lasting afterglow composite films from blue to red were obtained, achieving 0.42 s delayed fluorescence at 661 nm with a fluorescence quantum yield of 32.22 %. In addition, these adjustable afterglow materials had good molding processability, so several cryptographic patterns were achieved to demonstrate their good application prospects in advanced anti-counterfeiting technologies.

Effect of boron doping levels on the piezoresistive properties of boron-doped diamond films prepared by HFCVD

The exceptional piezoresistive properties of boron-doped diamond (BDD) films render them highly promising for pressure sensor applications. These properties are closely associated with the doping concentration, crystal structure, and substrate material. In this study, BDD films with varying boron concentrations (B/C=500-8000 ppm) were fabricated on silicon and diamond substrates using hot-filament chemical vapor deposition (HFCVD) equipment. The relationship between surface grain characteristics, grain boundaries, and gauge factor (GF) of BDD films deposited on different substrates was systematically examined. The concentration of boron doping significantly influenced the surface morphology, electrical resistivity, and GF of the BDD films. The grain size of BDD films initially increased as the boron doping concentration was raised from 500 ppm to 2000 ppm; however, it subsequently decreased when the boron doping content exceeded 2000 ppm. Moreover, we found that the piezoresistive impact of a BDD film is strongly correlated to its grain size; larger grain sizes result in higher GF values. Notably, compared to those on silicon substrates, the BDD films deposited on diamond substrates exhibited superior piezoresistive characteristics. Specifically at a doping concentration of 2000 ppm, a GF as high as 284 was achieved for the BDD film on a diamond substrate compared to only 140 for that on a silicon substrate.

Significantly Enhanced Electromagnetic Wave Absorption Performances and Corresponding Mechanism of LaMn1-xFexO3 Perovskites

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.
