In this work, the mechanism of negative permittivity response with low losses in the silver nanowires/polyvinylidene fluoride composites were demonstrated.Due to the large aspect ratios of silver nanowires, ultra-low percolation threshold (f c ) between 0.7 and 0.8 wt% was achieved with the losses effectively decreased by several orders of magnitude down to a low level of about 0.2. The negative permittivity response from Lorentz type and Drude type presented the transition from insulator to conductor. The tunable Drude type negative per-
