Abstract :
The fabrication of large area conducting polymer composites having prescribed polymer loadings and electrical properties has enabled them to be characterised over the frequency range 2-18 GHz using a free-space reflectivity arch and an HP 8510B network analyser. Representative examples of practical narrow- and broadband microwave absorber designs using such films are presented and evaluated experimentally.
