contents A novel method for enhancing microwave heating uniformity using a 2-bit coding metasurface is proposed. This metasurface is specially designed to scatter incident waves into multiple directions at 2.45 GHz rather than just one, significantly improving the electric field distribution uniformity within a cavity, and eliminating the need to redesign the cavity itself or modify the power excitation. Simulated results demonstrate a reduction in the coefficient of variation (COV) of potato temperature from 0.694 to 0.461, indicating enhanced heating uniformity while maintaining efficiency. Additionally, the measured potato temperatures show excellent agreement with the simulated results, validating the effectiveness of the proposed method.
