title: Hybrid of MoS₂ and Reduced Graphene Oxide: A Lightweight and Broadband Electromagnetic Wave Absorber.
abstract: Electromagnetic wave absorbing materials that can exhibit effective absorption in a broad bandwidth at a thin thickness are strongly desired due to their widespread applications in electronic devices. In this study, hybrids of MoS2 and reduced graphene oxide (RGO) were prepared and their microwave absorption performance was investigated for the first time. It was found that a thin sample consisting of 10 wt % MoS2/RGO hybrid in the wax matrix exhibited an effective microwave absorption bandwidth of 5.72 GHz at the thickness less than 2.0 mm. The highest reflection loss of -50.9 dB was observed at 11.68 GHz for a sample with a thickness of 2.3 mm. Results obtained in this study indicate that hybrids of MoS2 and RGO are promising microwave absorbing materials, which can exhibit broad effective absorption bandwidth at low filler loading and thin thickness.
