Currently, materials with outstanding absorption abilities, such as thin size, better absorbing power, and light weight are the need of industry to resolve the electromagnetic issues. However, the research on optimizing the composition of the material, microstructure and the structure of the absorber are also the important factors for enhancing the absorption features. A metamaterial microwave absorber (MMA) based on nano ferrites with desirable absorption peaks is proposed and simulated. Sol-gel auto combustion route is used to prepare the nanosized Sm doped Co ferrite with Co1+xSmxFe2-2xO4 at x = 0.00, 0.03, 0.06, 0.09, respectively. XRD, VSM, FESEM, and VNA were employed to evaluate the structural, magnetic, morphological, and dielectric features. Rietveld refinement of the XRD patterns of samples was evaluated. Refined parameters show the spinel phase's emergence and the Fe2O3 phase. Grain size and crystallite size were increased with Sm doping in Co ferrite. Electromagnetic studies depicted that the highest dielectric constant value was found at x = 0.09 and the minimum value at x = 0.03, respectively. Sm doped Co ferrite at x = 0.09 depicted high Q values at higher frequencies. The coercivity values first decreased and then increased. All samples exhibit variations in coercivity and magneto-crystalline anisotropy constant. This variation was attributed to the super-exchange interactions and strong LS coupling of the cations. The multiple absorption peaks are attained for TE-polarization, and the absorptivity is considerably improved for x = 0.09. The proposed absorber simulated from CST depicted the absorption peaks of the S-band and C-band of the microwave regime. The synergistic effects among the metamaterial and ferrite layers may enhance the absorption feature and would be useful for satellite communication applications.
