Microwave Absorption of Organic Metal Halide Nanotubes
Abstract
Organic metal halide hybrids have attracted tremendous research interests owing to their outstanding optical and electronic properties suitable for various applications, including photovoltaics, light‐emitting diodes, and photodetectors. Recently, the multifunctionality of this class of materials has been further explored beyond their optical and electronic properties. Here, for the first time the microwave electromagnetic properties of a 1D organic metal halide hybrid, (C6H13N4)3Pb2Br7, a single crystalline bulk assembly of organic metal halide nanotubes, are reported. Good microwave absorption performance with a large reflection loss value of −18.5 dB and a threshold bandwidth of 1.0 GHz is discovered for this material, suggesting its potential as a new microwave absorber. This work reveals a new functionality of organic metal halide hybrids and provides a new material class for microwave absorption application studies.
