Abstract Full text Electronic supplementary material About this article

The design and optimization of one-dimension (1D) magnetic material are of great importance for the energy conversion, storage and spin electron devices, which remain a huge challenge. Herein, 1D porous Fe3O4 nanotubes (NTs) have been fabricated via a combined process of electrospinning and calcination. In the electrospinning precursors, by regulating the content ratio between two types of polyvinyl pyrrolidone with different molecular weight, porous Fe3O4 NTs with vortex-domain configuration have been fabricated. Based on the unique 1D nanotube structure encapsulated with multi-domains, the composite Fe3O4 NTs exhibit high complex permeability (μʹ, μʺ) values, and hold both strong magnetic storage and dissipation capacity. Our Fe3O4 NTs exhibit excellent microwave absorption (MA) performance with the maximum reflection loss value of −57.1 dB and the efficient absorption bandwidth of 12.0 GHz. The generated magnetic vortices make the crucial contribution to the spin-wave resonance which improves the MA dissipation under high-frequency. Related magnetic flux line distribution and magnetic domain moment were confirmed by the electron holography and micro-magnetic simulation, respectively, providing the deep insight to the microwave absorption mechanism.
