Abstract
A novel interfacial resistance-free (IRF) bifunctional camouflage (transparent and invisible) device is proposed in this paper. The thermal and electric conductivities of the shell and background are the same to eliminate the interfacial resistance. The IRF bifunctional camouflage device can operate in thermal–electric fields based on the neutral inclusion method. The distribution of isotherm and equipotential lines are studied quantitatively by the simulations. It is confirmed that the IRF bifunctional camouflage device with arbitrary natural materials can effectively achieve not only the invisible function but also the transparent function in thermal–electric fields. This method provides a window to the realization of bifunctions and the development of multi-physics fields.
