Electromagnetic shielding materials generated with the extensive application of electromagnetic wave have been utilized in military radar stealth, electromagnetic shielding of advanced electronic equipment, electromagnetic radiation protection, and other fields. With the quick development of Internet and electronic devices, a large number of electromagnetic waves flood into the living environment, affecting human life and health potentially. Meanwhile, further development and applications of terahertz (THz) electromagnetic detection technology challenge the research of electromagnetic interference shielding (EMIS). Therefore, EMIS materials have been developed toward the direction of high efficiency, wide bandwidth, and lightweight. However, traditional single metal-based and polymer-based EMIS materials cannot meet the demand. Current studies confirmed that graphene, especially graphene foam (GF)-based EMIS materials, has become one of the most potential EMIS materials in the field of electromagnetic wave loss and absorption due to its unique physical structure and excellent electrical and mechanical properties. GF, a three-dimensional graphene structure prepared from graphene and its derivatives not only fully utilizes the unique physical and chemical properties of graphene but also further reduces the density of EMIS materials and improves the EMIS performance. This work expounds the potential value of graphene in the field of EMIS based on the mechanism of EMIS and then summarizes the recent progress of GF-based materials for EMIS applications. More focus on the effects of different preparation methods toward the structure, mechanical properties, and EMIS performance of GF materials are introduced and discussed in detail.

Electrospinning is a facile technique to fabricate nanofibrous materials with adjustable structure, property, and functions. Electrospun materials have exhibited wide applications in the fields of materials science, biomedicine, tissue engineering, energy storage, environmental science, sensing, and others. In this review, we present recent advance in the fabrication of nanoparticles (NPs)-based materials interfaces through electrospinning technique and their applications for high-performance sensors. To achieve this aim, first the strategies for fabricating various materials interfaces through electrospinning NPs, such as metallic, oxide, alloy/metal oxide, and carbon NPs, are demonstrated and discussed, and then the sensor applications of the fabricated NPs-based materials interfaces in electrochemical, electric, fluorescent, colorimetric, surface-enhanced Raman scattering, photoelectric, and chemoresistance-based sensing and detection are presented and discussed in detail. We believe that this study will be helpful for readers to understand the fabrication of functional materials interfaces by electrospinning, and at the same time will promote the design and fabrication of electrospun nano/micro-devices for wider applications in bioanalysis and label-free sensors.
