Abstract:
Fe3N has been considered as a new generation of ideal ferromagnetic materials with the virtues of high saturated magnetization and high resistance to oxidation. However, a facile and eco-friendly fabrication of Fe3N still needs to be investigated. Herein, the gelatin derived from fish skin was chosen as the raw material of carbon and the amino acid inherent in fish skin can act as a nitrogen source for the generation of Fe3N. Besides, the influence of graphitization degree to dielectric behavior of composites was further investigated. In this work, the composites fabricated by 0.8 mmol Fe(NO3)3 exhibited optimal absorption performance with the minimum reflection loss of -77.6 dB at 2.2 mm. Besides, the absorption bandwidth was detected as 7.76 GHz (covering from 10.24 to 18 GHz) at the matching thickness of 2.7 mm. According to the analysis of dielectric constant, the degree of graphitization affects the dielectric behavior mainly in determining the orientation speed of the dipole and the conductive loss. This work provides a new thought for the investigation of the electromagnetic absorption mechanism of composite.

Consider the electromagnetic wave passing through a dielectric medium. In such a case, Maxwell's equations get modified. In Ampere's law, ε0 , the dielectric permittivity of free space is replaced with ε, the permittivity of dielectric. Also, the vacuum permeability μ0 is replaced by the permeability of the medium, μ.
