Abstract

Structural electromagnetic shielding materials are required to withstand high stress and electromagnetic interference in extreme environments. In this paper, a nano-magnetic Heusler phase with desired structure parameters was successfully obtained in a copper matrix by employing a multi-objective driving design strategy. The resulting copper alloy exhibits a yield strength of up to 1.5 GPa, and the attenuation degree of electromagnetic wave reaches 99.999999999% (110 dB) within the frequency range of 10 kHz to 3 GHz. The research suggests that the Ni2MnSn precipitates with optimized structure parameters (including high number density: 5 × 1023 m−3, small size: 23 nm, large aspect ratio: 4, low mismatch: 2.3%, strong bonding: -0.316 eV/atom, magnetic order: 4.05 μB/f.u.) both reinforce the matrix by strong pinning and enhance electromagnetic shielding properties through magnetic-electric coupling. This design method tailored for multiple performance requirements provides a valuable tool for the development of structure-function integrated materials.
