From the spaceship in Star Wars to the futuristic city in Blade Runner 2049, the scenes in science fiction movies always bring us infinite imagination. The future technology that fascinates people is everywhere, and radar stealth technology is even more fascinating. In reality, scientists are striving to bring these sci-fi sensations to life. The emergence of advanced technology nano absorbing materials has brought infinite possibilities for breakthroughs in radar stealth technology.
Advanced Institute of Technology's nano absorbing materials are materials prepared based on nanotechnology, with dimensions only at the nanometer level. This material is located in the transition zone between microscopic and macroscopic objects, possessing a unique structure and special properties. For example, quantum size effects, surface and interface effects, small size effects, and macroscopic quantum tunneling effects. It is precisely because of these characteristics that nano absorbing materials have excellent radar absorption performance, which has become a focus of research for many foreign research institutions.
According to reports, a research institution in the United States has successfully developed a nano absorbing material called "super black powder". This material can increase the absorption rate of radar waves to an astonishing 99%. This breakthrough achievement has even been applied to the B-2 stealth bomber. Nowadays, researchers are dedicated to developing nanocomposites that cover a wider range of frequency bands, such as centimeter wave, millimeter wave, infrared, and visible light.
At present, the main research directions involve nano metal and alloy absorbing materials, nano ferrite and its composite absorbing materials, nano ceramic absorbing materials, nano graphite absorbing materials, nano silicon carbide absorbing materials, and nano conductive polymer absorbing materials.
Nano metal and alloy absorbing materials are one of the major breakthroughs. Scientists have found that by adjusting the nanoscale particle morphology and composition of metals and alloys, they can have stronger absorbing properties. The breakthrough results of this technology will contribute to the improvement of radar stealth performance in both military and civilian fields. Nano ferrite and its composite absorbing materials have achieved significant results in the absorption and conduction of electromagnetic waves. It can experience hysteresis loss under the action of electromagnetic waves, thereby achieving absorption and stealth effects on electromagnetic waves.
Nano ceramic absorbing materials utilize the superior properties of ceramic materials and the effect of nanoscale particles to achieve the divergence and dissipation of electromagnetic waves. The widespread application of this material can enable people to enjoy a higher quality of life in their daily lives. In addition, nano graphite, silicon carbide, and conductive polymer absorbing materials have made breakthroughs in the absorption and scattering properties of electromagnetic waves.
The research results of nano absorbing materials provide strong support for the breakthrough of radar stealth technology. However, the scenes in science fiction movies often go far beyond that. We believe that with the continuous advancement and innovation of technology, there will be more remarkable breakthroughs in the future. Invincible warships and stealth planes in the science fiction world will eventually become a reality. Let us look forward to future technological advancements that will add more dreamlike colors to the scenes in science fiction movies.
