“…Various methods, such as compositing, doping and surface modification, have been well attempted to enhance the loss tangent. Dielectric, electromagnetic absorption and interference shielding properties of multi-phase composites, such as SiC/CNTs [8], carbon black/SiC [9], Si 3 N 4 -SiC composite ceramics [10], porous yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ)/silicon carbide composites [11] and three-phase composites comprising poly(vinylidene fluoride)(PVDF), barium titanate (BT) nanoparticles and β-silicon carbide (β-SiC) whiskers [12], are investigated. Improving microwave loss factor and microwave-absorption performance have also been observed in the doped SiC with other elements, such as B [13,14], N [15][16][17], Al [18][19][20][21], Ni [22], and Al-N [23].…”
