Here, we present a high-efficiency, deep-subwavelength multilayer metacoating (MMC) designed for dual-band emission in the MWIR and LWIR ATWs.

Experimental results confirm these findings, which arise from electromagnetic localization within the multilayer architecture and dissipation in lossy materials (Ti and Cr). Notably, the emitter exhibits angle-insensitive performance, maintaining emissivities of 0.65 (MWIR) and 0.72 (LWIR) at incidence angles up to 70°, and demonstrates effective LWIR camouflage against high-emissivity backgrounds.
