Microwave-stealth metasurface with infrared camouflage and visible-light transparency
Conventional single-band stealth systems face significant challenges in addressing multispectral detection technologies, necessitating urgent research into multi-band compatible stealth solutions. The study proposes and validates a novel visible-transparent microwave absorber with infrared shielding capability. The designed structure is composed of radar absorption layer (RAL) and an infrared shielding layer (IRSL). The RAL was designed using electromagnetic resonance principles and an equivalent impedance model, featuring a snowflake-inspired pattern with dual-level branching structures. The absorber achieves an absorption efficiency exceeding 90 % at frequencies above 9.25 GHz and an average visible light transmittance of 61.3 %. In addition, IRSL uses a frequency selective surface (FSS) with a hexagonal array design. It achieves high transmittance in the microwave band from 0 to 27 GHz and infrared emissivity as low as 0.32 in the 3–14 µm range. The designed absorber enables effective realization of radar-infrared compatible stealth, while maintaining visible light transparency that shows significant application potential in multi-spectrum compatible camouflage for optical windows and similar installations.
期刊介绍:
The Journal covers the entire field of infrared physics and technology: theory, experiment, application, devices and instrumentation. Infrared'' is defined as covering the near, mid and far infrared (terahertz) regions from 0.75um (750nm) to 1mm (300GHz.) Submissions in the 300GHz to 100GHz region may be accepted at the editors discretion if their content is relevant to shorter wavelengths. Submissions must be primarily concerned with and directly relevant to this spectral region.
Its core topics can be summarized as the generation, propagation and detection, of infrared radiation; the associated optics, materials and devices; and its use in all fields of science, industry, engineering and medicine.
Infrared techniques occur in many different fields, notably spectroscopy and interferometry; material characterization and processing; atmospheric physics, astronomy and space research. Scientific aspects include lasers, quantum optics, quantum electronics, image processing and semiconductor physics. Some important applications are medical diagnostics and treatment, industrial inspection and environmental monitoring.
