Summary: The influence of primary alpha-Fe precipitation on thermal and magnetic properties was investigated by producing Fe76.5-xCu1NbxSi13.5B9 (x=0, 1, 2 and 3) amorphous/nanocrystalline ribbons through melt-spinning. It was found that rapid quenching and heat treatment had similar effects on alpha-Fe precipitation. By optimizing components and heat treatment, magnetic properties of the ribbons could be significantly improved.

Summary: Maintaining dynamic microwave synchronization between a target and its background is crucial for achieving electromagnetic invisibility in real environments. This study introduces a paradigmatic example of ultra-elastic films made of graphene-functionalized ionic gel, which exhibit tunable microwave-absorbing behaviors. By changing the shape of a 3D wrinkled structure with ridge walls of moderate impedance, the reflected wave can be minimized and energy attenuation can be promoted. Experimental and finite element simulations demonstrate an optimal RL value of -43.6 dB and a valid regulatory amplitude of 41.5 dB, covering a range from microwave-absorbing to shielding state.

Summary: In this study, Fi(40)Ni(40)B(20) metallic glass microfibers with a diameter of 5 μm were fabricated, and the influence of different melt-spinning wheel velocities on their structure and magnetic properties was investigated. Cylindrical magnetic field shields with anisotropic static field shielding behavior were obtained by wrapping the microfibers around a cast. Moreover, embedding the microfibers in an epoxy matrix significantly improved the electromagnetic properties of the composite at GHz frequencies.

Summary: The influence of zinc stearate on the microstructure and soft magnetic properties of Finemet nanocrystalline soft magnetic composites (NSMCs) was investigated. It was found that increasing the zinc stearate content led to a decrease in core loss and an increase in effective permeability, which can be attributed to the reduction of residual stress. However, excessive addition of zinc stearate resulted in a sharp increase in core loss and a decrease in effective permeability due to decomposition during annealing. After annealing, a thin hybrid layer containing iron phosphate, ZnO, and SiO2 was formed in the NSMCs with 2.0 wt% zinc stearate, exhibiting excellent soft magnetic properties.

Summary: With the rapid development of wireless communications, the issue of electromagnetic wave pollution and interference has become severe, creating a need for high-performance electromagnetic wave absorbers and shields. Carbon-based materials, specifically wood biomass-derived carbon materials, have gained recognition due to their satisfactory conductivity, low density, and corrosion resistance. These materials have a unique porous structure and can effectively absorb and shield electromagnetic waves, providing a valuable use for wood biomass resources. This review highlights the role of wood biomass-derived carbon materials in various electromagnetic wave absorbing and shielding materials, explores related studies, and discusses the obstacles and prospects of wood biomass-derived carbon materials.

Summary: A new compound magnetic shielding (CMS) is proposed to reduce the impact of rich harmonics and non-negligible amplitude magnetic field on the critical current Ic of HTS-excitation coil in the analyzed DS-HTSM. The CMS consists of a copper shield layer and a combined flux diverters (FDs) including the silicon steel sheet (SSS) FD and the Fe-based nanocrystalline alloy (FNA) FD. The results show that the critical current Ic of HTS-excitation coil in the analyzed DS-HTSM can be improved by 36% after using the proposed CMS.

Summary: The effects of Si on the microstructure, soft magnetic properties, and bendability of rapidly-annealed Fe83SixB14-xP2Cu1 nanocrystalline ribbons were investigated. The substitution of B with Si promoted the formation of alpha-Fe(Si) grains and suppressed the precipitation of the hard-magnetic phase, resulting in a wider annealing temperature range for preparing alloys with high saturation magnetization and low coercivity. The alloys with higher Si contents exhibited improved bendability due to a more uniform distribution of Si compared to B.

Summary: This study utilized iron nanowires with excellent microwave absorbing properties to construct structures with ordered nanowire distributions, resulting in flexible transparent electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding films with high transmittance and shielding efficiency. The ordered nanowire network structure effectively addresses the trade-off issue between light transmittance and EMI shielding efficiency, providing a new approach for creating high-performance EMI shielding films.

Summary: This study focuses on the quantitative description of structural anisotropy in the Fe73.6Cu1Nb3Si15.5B6.9 alloy induced during tensile annealing. X-ray diffraction was used to investigate the structural changes caused by annealing under uniaxial tensile deformation. The results show that Fe3Si nanocrystalline grains growing in the tensile direction have a higher lattice spacing, while the opposite is observed in the transverse direction. The difference in lattice strain between the longitudinal and transverse directions is proportional to the applied tensile stress and serves as a quantitative parameter for stress-induced anisotropy (SIA).
