背景

经过多个期刊的数不清的退稿，稿件终于被 Journal of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials录用。

大部分退稿没有通过编辑部的初审。理由是内容的重要性和创新性没有达到期刊的要求。有意思的是颠覆性创新往往被以创新性不达标而拒稿。这些期刊大量发表建立在错误理论基础上的微波吸收文章。面对推翻这个错误理论的稿件，则是重要性和创新性都不达标，而错误文章在重要性和创新性方面都达到期刊发表标准。

我的观点：反复被拒的稿的稿件，只要作者不服，就不能下结论：“被众多期刊反复拒稿的稿件，稿件本身一定有问题。”

稿件的理论背景不超过大学的《普通物理》、数学技巧初中代数就够用。

擂台

稿件被发表，并不表明稿件内容在历史上是能够站的住的，欢迎质疑。

擂台背景：

推翻微波吸收理论框架的第一篇文章2017年发表，随后我们又发表了相当数量的文章

https://blog.sciencenet.cn/blog-3589443-1418636.html

从这些文章被浏览和被下载的数量上看，相关领域的作者和审稿人大概率已经知晓该反对理论，但是建立在错误理论基础上的错误论文继续在高级别刊物上大量发表，大多数文章不提我们的反对观点，而我们的反对观点直接关乎其文章所依据的理论是否正确。我们文章的理论背景不超过大学的《普通物理》、数学技巧初中代数就够用。

很多这些刊物拒稿我们的反对意见的投稿。当我们的文章发表后，坚决拒稿我们稿件的审稿人没有一个公开发表评论批驳我们的论证comment letter。当已经有反对观点后，继续发表错误文章需要在文章中给出理由，我们也非常欢迎质疑。

到目前为止，在众多相关文章中，只有2篇给出反对意见（我们的后续文章针对这些反对评论已经做了回应），一篇支持我们的理论。

[1] M. Green and X. Chen，Recent progress of nanomaterials for microwave absorption，Journal of Materiomics 2019 Vol. 5 Issue 4 Pages 503-541，DOI: 10.1016/j.jmat.2019.07.003

文献[1]反对我们新理论的观点：

“Although the entirety of this model has occasionally generated questions regarding its validity, [102] as one of the consequences of such derivation is the counterintuitive conclusion that sometimes increasing the thickness of the single-layer plane absorber decreases the absorptivity of the material, nevertheless, the model is the most highly utilized method the for determining material response to incident electromagnetic radiation in the microwave region, and appears to have been demonstrated experimentally [68,101,103].”

我们对反对观点的回复：

在地心说理论被推翻之前，该错误理论得到了所有实验观测的证实。

实验数据并不支持错误的微波吸收理论，但是文献中这些数据一直用来支持错误的微波吸收理论。

文献[2]针对我们的文章有的放矢地继续支持原来的错误理论，我们这篇新发表的文章中给出了相关回应。

文章[3]是唯一一篇支持我们波相消微波吸收理论的文章。有意思的是到目前为止该文[3]引用率为0，而该刊(Small)相关使用错误理论的其它文章则有可观的引用。

我的观点：

作者为了发表文章，故意不提反方观点是学术不端。

审稿人为了冲淡自己已经发表的错误文章的影响，鼓励其他人继续发表错误文章而不提示作者已经有反方观点被发表，是更恶劣的学术不端。

文章的重要性

膜是器件不是材料。但是在微波吸收材料领域，长期以来，膜和材料一直被混淆。结果导致阻抗匹配理论、阻抗匹配系数理论，（德尔塔）D-函数理论、四分之一波长理论。建立了错误的膜的微波吸收机理。

前期工作已经从实验和理论两个方面论证了微波现行理论的错误，建立了膜的微波吸收的微波理论。这个理论的深度是现代科学所建立的、能与牛顿时代物理学能够媲美的很少几个理论之一。

量子力学是将经典粒子力学和经典波动力学组合在一起，因而产生了一系列令人惊讶的概念。微波吸收的微波理论将波动力学用于膜，同样建立了一系列令人惊讶的概念。量子力学和微波吸收的微波理论一起，说明经典波动力学的强大威力。

由于波动力学的性质，与量子力学类似，建立了一些违背“常识”的概念。（1）孤立的界面和膜的界面有不同的物理功能。（2）进入膜的微波减少、膜材料的微波吸收能力下降，膜的微波吸收可以增加。（3）微波只有进入膜才能被膜吸收。由于膜能量守恒的要求，微波被膜吸收最大时，也是进入膜的微波从膜透射出来的光束的电压峰值达到极大值的时刻，而不是极小。（4）对于膜，微波分光束的电压可以大于入射总光束的电压。（5）入射光束不必全部进入膜就可以被膜全部吸收。（6）膜的微波吸收可以大于或小于其组成材料的微波吸收。

谦虚是高雅的，只有主流科学家才承担的起；

口出狂言是粗俗的，是非主流学者很无奈的选择。

发表非主流观点本来就阻力重重，你自己再不敢旗帜鲜明地声张自己的观点，那还指望谁来推广和坚持你的观点？

只有强者才有资格示弱，示强是弱者不得已的选择

文章的创新性

本工作通过建立描述膜内材料微波吸收的函数，以无以辩驳的理论和实验论证，从一个完全不同的角度，证明膜和材料的微波吸收是根本不同的，进一步丰富和证实我们之前的结论。

句子摘抄

In this work we show how all these errors can be corrected by using wave mechanics.

It is self-evident that there is a fundamental distinction between film and material. Nevertheless, within the established microwave absorption theory, their differences are considered to be irrelevant. This confusion arises due to using reflection loss (RL/dB) as the predominant parameter for characterizing properties of material, despite it being only suitable for evaluating films, an error which has led to the development of an absorption mechanism with films involving impedance matching theory. … It is to be regretted that these misguided concepts persist despite experimental verification being at best inconclusive. Researchers have been hesitant to embrace the new theory.

It is crucial to recognize that film absorption fundamentally arises from wave cancellation, yielding multiple absorption peaks originating from phase effects. In stark contrast, material absorption is rooted in the attenuation of microwaves as they traverse the zig-zag optical path, leading to a monotonic attenuation pattern with no well-defined bandwidth. This study shows that these two absorption mechanisms are distinct. In the case of films, absorption is driven by wave cancellation rather than material attenuation.

Researchers have been reluctant to accept the novel conclusions presented here, … Consequently, they persist in employing the term 'material' where 'film' should be used. Such oversimplification has resulted in the development of absorption mechanism theories that exhibit significant disparities with experimental data.

The results indicate that absorption in the film is a result of wave cancellation, not the attenuation power of the material.

This discrepancy highlights flaws in impedance matching theory,

Moreover, the disparities between the attenuation parameters of the material and the corresponding absorptions of the film, as illustrated in Fig. 2, provide further evidence that absorption in film is due to wave cancellation rather than on the attenuative properties of the material along the zig-zag optical path.

A groundbreaking wave mechanics theory for film has emerged, introducing innovative concepts that diverge significantly from the conventional microwave absorption framework. This pioneering theory suggests that optimizing absorption in films can be achieved through the phenomenon of wave cancellation, enabling efficient absorption with materials exhibiting reduced attenuation power and diminished microwave penetration. It delineates a clear distinction between films and materials, offering a streamlined and more relevant theory as a substitute for the often intricate and ambiguous impedance matching concept. By defining the attenuation power of the material within the film, this research provides a fresh perspective on the physics of film, conclusively demonstrating that film absorption differs from material attenuation. This constitutes a significant advancement in our understanding of film physics. It also underscores the fundamental difference in physics between film and its constituent material.

The primary aim of this study is to characterize the distinction between film and material, a crucial step toward rectifying prevailing misconceptions in theory.

The critical issue with the current theory of film absorption is that it has not given sufficient consideration to wave mechanics. Our work establishes that absorption for both MB and WMB can markedly deviate from those predicted by attenuation power of the constituent material.

This observation underscores the fundamental distinction between the physics governing a film as a distinct device compared to that of its constituent material. In contrast to the prevailing absorption theory, which assumes equivalence between film and material, this departure aligns with intuitive reasoning.

We have established that film absorption is dependent upon wave cancellation. In this paper, we validate the assertion that film absorption fundamentally differs from material attenuation power. Our findings substantiate the prior conclusion that the film parameter RL is unsuitable for characterizing material. The conflation of film and material has introduced substantial complications in the development of accurate theories for microwave absorption mechanisms. These issues encompass the pervasive reliance on impedance matching theory, which erroneously extends energy penetration principles from material to film, and the quarter-wavelength theory, which disregards phase effects at film interfaces. Despite compelling evidence of the shortcomings, the persisting misconception persists, with researchers often considering film as an extension of material. This assumption leads to the unwarranted application of impedance matching and quarter wavelength theories, initially developed for material, to film scenarios.
