Abstract
Modern detection technology has driven camouflage technology toward multispectral compatibility and dynamic regulation. However, developing such stealth technologies is challenging due to different frequency-band principles. Here, this work proposes a design concept for a fluid-actuated multispectral compatible smart stealth device that employs a deformable mechanochromic layer/elastomer with a channeled dielectric layer. After fluid actuation, the deformable elastomer layer transmits mechanical strain to the mechanochromic layer, thereby altering the visible reflectance wavelengths in [568, 699] nm. Concurrently, the pumped-in liquid reconfigures the spatial structure parameter to alter microwave resonance and diffraction for dynamic radar absorption, enabling dynamic radar absorption with significant broadband absorption at [8.16, 18.0] GHz. Using the heat-absorption property also achieves dynamic infrared stealth, shown by a ΔT ≈ 16.5 °C temperature difference. Additionally, the device exhibits a rapid response time (∼1 s), excellent cycling performance (100 cycles), and programmability (10 codes), offering a new stealth strategy.
