Simulation and measurement of optimized microwave reflectivity for carbon nanotube absorber by controlling electromagnetic factors

Abstract Heat-treatments may change the defect and surface organic groups of carbon nanotubes (CNTs), and lead to significant changes in the microwave electromagnetic parameter of CNTs. In this paper, the effect of heat-treatment time and temperature on the complex dielectric constant and permeabili...
