Based on one-dimensional photonic crystals (1D PCs), we studied an innovative multispectral compatible stealth material for visible light, infrared, and 1.06-μm laser. The fabricated PCs had advantages of different colors, low emissivity in the atmospheric windows, and low reflectance at 1.06-μm waveband. According to some relevant experiments, the prepared films possessed colors of yellow, green, and blue, which could be used to simulate the color of the desert, woodland, and ocean, respectively. The infrared stealth performance of films showed that the thermal radiation in the atmospheric windows of 3 to 5 μm and 8 to 14 μm could be reduced effectively. In addition, the films’ reflectance spectra measured by spectrometer indicate that the reflectance at 1.06 μm is below 20%, which, in practice, could enormously reduce the echo power of incident lasers. |
