摘要

摘要: 该文通过单一材料平台集成宽带微波散射(7.4 GHz带宽)与被动红外抑制，为跨波段隐身提供了一种解决方案，克服了传统隐身材料同时兼顾微波吸收与热管理之间的设计挑战。该文提出一种新型全金属随机编码超表面，实现了跨波段隐身功能，兼具微波频段雷达散射截面(RCS)缩减和红外隐身效果。该超表面整体采用铜结构，通过计算机数控加工制造，相比传统复合材料设计，消除了界面脱层的风险。同时，其单一材料构造使其能够同时调控微波散射特性和红外辐射特性。该结构通过遗传算法优化相位分布后，在11$ \sim $18.4 GHz频段(73%带宽)内实现了超过10 dB的RCS缩减，在14.7 GHz频点处的最大抑制效果超过15 dB，相关结果已通过仿真和微波暗室测试验证。该全金属结构在8$ \sim $14 μm红外波段展现出超过99.9%的红外反射率，且通过商业红外成像仪热成像实验证实其被动红外隐身能力，显示出在多光谱隐身应用中的潜力。所制造的计算机数控(CNC)原型结构尺寸为150×150 mm²，包含10×10的单元阵列，在最大达60°的线极化斜入射角下仍保持良好的结构稳定性，验证了其在贴合式应用中推广的可行性。

Abstract: Objective Traditional electromagnetic stealth materials face the practical challenge of achieving both microwave absorption and infrared stealth. Conventional solutions, including geometric optimization and multilayer composite coatings, often suffer from narrow bandwidth, complex fabrication, and limited cross-band compatibility. This study proposes a genetic algorithm–optimized all-metal random coding metasurface that enables concurrent broadband Radar Cross Section (RCS) reduction and low infrared emissivity on a monolithic metallic platform, thereby addressing these practical limitations. Methods Monolithic all-metal C-shaped resonant units are employed. The design is based on the Pancharatnam–Berry geometric phase, in which the reflection phase is regulated by the rotation angle of the unit. Coding schemes of 2-bit, 3-bit, and 4-bit are implemented, corresponding to 4, 8, and 16 discrete phase states. A MATLAB–CST co-simulation framework is established. CST extracts unit responses using the Finite Element Method (FEM), whereas MATLAB applies a genetic algorithm to optimize the phase distribution for scattering energy diffusion. All-metal metasurface prototypes (150 × 150 mm², 10 × 10 array) are fabricated using Computer Numerical Control(CNC) cutting. Results and Discussions Genetic algorithm optimization converges within 6–8 generations. Increasing the number of coding bits enhances phase randomness. The 4-bit metasurface achieves an average 10 dB RCS reduction over 11$ \sim $18.4 GHz. Simulation results agree with anechoic chamber measurements under oblique incidence angles from 0° to 60°. Infrared imaging confirms the low emissivity of the metallic surface. Compared with conventional composite or multilayer structures, the all-metal design simplifies fabrication, prevents interfacial mismatch, and improves structural stability. The metasurface demonstrates broadband, wide-angle, and cross-band stealth performance. Conclusions This study presents a genetic algorithm–optimized all-metal random coding metasurface that achieves cross-band stealth compatibility. The design addresses the persistent challenge of realizing both microwave performance and thermal management in conventional stealth materials. Three main technical contributions are demonstrated. (1)The monolithic copper structure provides greater than 99.9% infrared reflectivity in the 8$ \sim $14 μm band, verified by FLIR imaging, and achieves an average 10 dB RCS reduction over 11$ \sim $18.4 GHz. (2)The single-material configuration removes the risk of delamination. The CNC-fabricated prototype maintains structural integrity under 60° oblique incidence and reduces fabrication cost by approximately 78% compared with lithographic processing. (3)The co-simulation optimization framework converges within eight generations for 4-bit coding, enabling broadband scattering manipulation over 7.4 GHz. The proposed metasurface combines fabrication reliability, cost efficiency, and dual-band stealth capability. These characteristics provide a practical basis for large-scale deployment in military stealth systems and satellite platforms that require multispectral concealment and long-term structural durability.
