Investigations of microwave absorption performance of bi-layer absorber composed of FeWO & BiVO nanocomposite powder in 2-18 GHz.

Optimization necessitates every feature to be scrutinized associated with enhancement for microwave absorption. So, interplay between simulation and experiment is a significant aspect to find optimal findings in this regard. Herein, microwave absorption characteristics of as-prepared FeWO and BiVO nanomaterials were investigated by preparing mono layer and bilayer samples. For the bilayer samples, simulation technique was used to regulate microwave absorption efficiency. Using simulation technique, bilayer sample has achieved a minimum reflection loss (RL) of -42 dB with BiVO as a top layer (0.6 mm thickness) and FeWO as a bottom layer (0.8 mm thickness) with effective absorption Bandwidth (EAB) of 13 GHz (15-2 GHz) at 8.2 GHz frequency. The results show that the layered architecture of the absorbent is substantially responsible for its remarkable microwave absorption efficiency. Simulated results of the bilayer sample were also verified with experimental findings. This work provides a facile synthesis route, novel insights into the design of bilayer absorbent as well as simulation and experimental support for high-performance microwave bilayer absorber.
