Abstract:

Metasurfaces can provide two main mechanisms of scattering manipulation and electromagnetic absorption for stealth design, becoming a promising new approach for stealth technology. This paper presented a concise review on the applications and recent advancements in the field of metasurfaces specifically for stealth technology. Firstly, the basic mechanism and implement method of scattering manipulation by metasurface for stealth design were introduced, including the development history and achievements of phase gradient metasurface, coding metasurface and metasurface cloak. Secondly, the research progresses of stealth technology based on microwave absorption mechanism were introduced, including perfect absorbers, multi-band absorbers, broadband absorbers and wide angle range absorbers. Thirdly, metasurface composition designs for radar stealth and other functions were introduced, including stealth-strength composite design, absorbing-transmission-scattering integrated design, radar-infrared compatible stealth design, etc. Finally, some existing problems in the stealth applications were summarized and future research directions of metasurfaces were presented.
