Abstract
A method of electroless plating was utilized to deposit Cu, Ni, Co, Ag on the surface of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) respectively, in order to prepare millimeter-wave absorbing materials. Field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) and energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS) were used to observe morphologies and chemical compositions of the samples respectively. Millimeter-wave radiometer imaging detection was employed to measure the absorbing properties of the samples. FE-SEM and EDS results demonstrate the effectiveness of successful metal deposition. The results of millimeter-wave radiometer imaging detection reveal that the millimeter-wave absorbing properties of electroless-silver plating are better than other kinds of samples.
