Abstract:With the advent of “multi-domain integration” operation mode for future war, the new generation of weapons and equipment should be of higher stealth ability to enhance their penetration capability and survivability. It is urgent to carry out research on new stealth mechanism, high-performance stealth material and structure. Spoof surface plasmon polaritons (SSPP) is a hybrid mode generated by the strong coupling between electron and electromagnetic oscillations. It exhibits the characteristics of shorter wavelength and strong dispersion, and has important application values in the fields of stealth, electronic countermeasures and others. In recent years, the development of SSPP theory and structure design has greatly enhanced the controllability of amplitude, phase, polarization, propagation mode of electromagnetic waves. Based on the latest research progress of SSPP in the field of stealth technologies, combined with the dispersion characteristics of SSPP, this paper focused on the application of SSPP in waveform distortion, absorbing structure, stealth radome and stealth antenna. Finally, the application and development trend of SSPP in stealth technologies were prospected.
