Yan Received 18 June 2009 Accepted 12 August 2009 Published online 18 September 2009 to the authors 2009 Abstract In this article SnO2 nanowires NWs have been prepared and their microwave absorption properties have been investigated in detail. Complex permittivity and permeability of the SnO2 NWs paraffin composites have been measured in a frequency range of GHz and the measured results are compared with that calculated from effective medium theory. The value of maximum reflection loss for the composites with 20 vol. SnO2 NWs is approximately dB at 14 GHz with a thickness of mm. Keywords Nanowires Permittivity Microwave absorption Effective medium theory Introduction In recent years electromagnetic EM wave absorbing materials have aroused great interest because of more and more civil commercial and military applications in electromagnetic interference EMI shielding and radar cross section RCS reduction in the gigahertz GHz band range 1 2 . Traditionally EM wave absorbing materials which are composed of magnetic metals or alloys particles are H. T. Feng R. F. Zhuo J. T. Chen D. Yan J. J. Feng H. J. Li S. Cheng Z. G. Wu J. Wang P. X.

It is hence desirable to have microwave absorbing materials that are lightweight structurally sound and flexible and show good microwaveabsorbing ability in a wide frequency range. In terms of these criteria .
