RESUMO
This work proposed and demonstrated a bi-functional metamaterial to implement the multispectral camouflage in infrared and microwave bands. Aiming at integrating broadband, wide-angle and low infrared emissivity into one structure, the bi-functional structure is made up of three metasurface layers with different functions. Specifically, a metasurface superstrate based on hexagonal metallic patch was deployed to achieve a low infrared emissivity and a high transmittance of microwave simultaneously. In the framework of equivalent circuit model, the bi-functional structure was designed and optimized. A dielectric transition layer was introduced into the structure to obtain better microwave absorption performances. A sample of such structure was prepared based on optimized geometric parameters and tested. The simulated and measured results indicate that the novel hexagonal patch metasurface superstrate significantly reduces infrared emissivity and the measured emissivity of the structure is about 0.144 in 8-14µm infrared band. Meanwhile, the multilayered structure has a broadband absorption band from 2.32â GHz to 24.8â GHz with 7â â mm thickness and is equipped with good angular stability under oblique incidence. In general, the method and specific design proposed in this work will benefit utilizing metasurface to implement bi-functional microwave and infrared camouflage materials with outstanding performances, which are promising for extensive applications.
RESUMO
We report here a rare case of adult sacrococcygeal teratoma (SCT) that was pathologically diagnosed as signet ring cell carcinoma (SRCC). A 26-year-old man complained of lower abdominal distension and discomfort and difficulty in urinating, and he was admitted to our hospital. Pelvic magnetic resonance imaging showed multiple oval, solid-cystic masses around the anterior sacrococcygeal region that measured approximately 96 × 114 × 89 mm. Magnetic resonance imaging also showed irregular cysts around the posterior sacrococcygeal region that measured approximately 34 × 72 × 60 mm. The preliminary diagnosis was cystic SCT. The patient then underwent surgery, during which we incised the cysts. A large amount of viscous, jelly-like liquid was present in the anterior sacrococcygeal mass. Furthermore, a large amount of light yellow, porridge-like secretion was present in the posterior sacrococcygeal mass. A pathological examination and immunohistochemistry confirmed teratoma, specifically SRCC.
