An infrared artificial thermochromic material composed of a metamaterial emitter and a bimaterial micro‐electro‐mechanical system is investigated. A differential emissivity of over 30% is achieved between 623 K and room temperature. The passive metamaterial device demonstrates the ability to independently control the peak wavelength and temperature dependence of the emissivity, and achieves thermal emission following a super Stefan–Boltzmann power curve.
