Abstract

The rapid advancement of infrared and radar detection technologies and their integration with visible light

laser

and other detection methods

the survivability of battlefield targets is facing increasing challenges. Consequently

the development of multispectral compatible stealth technology holds significant strategic significance. Traditional coating materials

typically exhibiting low emissivity only in specific bands and lacking spectral selectivity

struggle to meet the demands of multispectral stealth applications. In recent years

optical microstructures based on the fusion of multi-response modes have provided a novel pathway for precise spectral manipulation

showing great potential for achieving effective stealth across multiple target bands by approaching the ideal spectral response. This review systematically investigates the latest research progress of multispectral stealth technology. It begins by elucidating the electromagnetic absorption regulation mechanisms based on interference and resonance principles

along with their corresponding stealth mechanisms and implementation pathways in the visible

infrared

and microwave bands. Subsequently

it analyzes the design strategies for multispectral compatible stealth structures. To address the limitations in traditional forward design

such as high computational complexity and low optimization efficiency

this review highlights the pivotal role of intelligent reverse design in achieving precise spectral matching and structural optimization. Furthermore

focusing on the requirements for stealth in complex and variable environmental backgrounds

it provides an in-depth analysis of adaptive and dynamically tunable stealth technologies enabled by novel functional materials such as phase-change materials

liquid crystals

and graphene. Finally

the review discusses future prospects and outlines development directions for multispectral stealth technology.
