Description

Yuan Liang and four co-authors design a thin, lightweight material that absorbs microwaves across an ultra-wide band, a defense against modern radar. Their paper came out in 2025. Broad detection systems force absorbers to work across many frequencies without growing thick or heavy.

Their absorber stacks a standard circuit-board layer, a periodic structure whose properties grade gradually, and a magnetic skin that dissipates the energy. The double gradient, in both structure and composition, matches the wave smoothly into the material. Simulations and lab tests agreed: strong absorption across three radar bands, at a third of the density of conventional magnetic absorbers. Performance held for varied wave angles and polarizations. The fiber-reinforced build also carries mechanical load, solving the usual strength trade-off.
