In-situ microwave characterization of ferromagnetic microwires-filled polymer composites: a review
arXiv:1406.3903 · doi:10.1016/j.jmmm.2014.10.052
Abstract
This review describes the emerging research area and relevant physics of polymer-based composites enabled by amorphous ferromagnetic microwires. Fruitful results ranging from their tunable magnetic field and mechanical stress properties and influences of direct current on their microwave behavior are displayed in addition to the brief analysis on the underlying physics. The multifunctionalities exhibited strongly imply a variety of potential applications such as structural health monitoring and high-performance sensors. This article underlines that the future challenge mainly lies in proper microwire tailoring in expectation of a better microwave performance of microwire composites
