Hierarchical structure Fe@CNFs@Co/C elastic aerogels with intelligent electromagnetic wave absorption by Hongwei Zhou, Ying Lin, Yongzhen Ma, Luyao Han, Zhixin Cai, Yan Cheng, Qibin Yuan, Wenhuan Huang, Haibo Yang, Renchao Che

“…The EAB of Fe@CNFs@Co/C elastic aerogels is 14.4 GHz (3.36–17.76 GHz), which covers 90% of the range of S/C/X/Ku bands. The theoretical simulation indicates that the external pressure prompts a reduction in the spacing between the fiber layers in the aerogels and facilitates the formation of a 3D conductive network with enhanced attenuation ability of EMW. …”
