Description
Summary:<p>Abstract</p> <p>In this article, SnO<sub>2</sub>nanowires (NWs) have been prepared and their microwave absorption properties have been investigated in detail. Complex permittivity and permeability of the SnO<sub>2</sub>NWs/paraffin composites have been measured in a frequency range of 0.1&#8211;18 GHz, and the measured results are compared with that calculated from effective medium theory. The value of maximum reflection loss for the composites with 20 vol.% SnO<sub>2</sub>NWs is approximately &#8722;32.5 dB at 14 GHz with a thickness of 5.0 mm.</p>
