“…As a type of electromagnetic spectrum, MWs can cause the oscillating friction of ions and polar molecules in cells billions of times per second, which results in rapid heat generation. − The most prominent characteristics of MW-absorbing materials are excellent impedance matching and strong dielectric loss capability . Recently, transition metal oxides, such as common semiconductor materials with excellent dielectric properties, have attracted much attention in the fields of catalysis, electrochemistry, supercapacitors, and microwave absorption, involving ZnO, Co 3 O 4 , CuO, MnO 2 , MoO 2 , MoO 3 , etc. − In particular, the transition metal oxides of MoO 2 and WO 3 have high metal conductivity and good chemical and thermal stability. − The Mo coordination of monoclinic MoO 2 does not follow a strict octahedral form, and there are two types of different Mo–O bonds and nonpolar Mo–Mo bonds that result in metal conductivity . Because of its electrical conductivity, the surface of MoO 2 has a mass of free electrons, thus exhibiting a strong localized surface plasmon resonance effect (LSPR) under irradiation. , The monoclinic WO 3 has similar properties.…”
