By stretching the flexible meta-skin, the device can be tuned to reduce the reflection of a wide range of radar frequencies. “It is believed that the present meta-skin technology will find many applications in electromagnetic frequency tuning, shielding and scattering suppression,” the engineers wrote in their paper.
