Radiative Cooling with Transparent Microstructured Hybrid Organic-Inorganic Polymer Film Fabricated by Nanoimprint Lithography.

ABSTRACT: Radiative cooling is a passive cooling technology that could potentially address critical sustainability challenges by improving energy efficiency across different applications, including building materials, coatings, electronics, and outdoor devices. Photonic radiative coolers are a discrete category that utilizes photonic structures to optimize the emission properties of the material in the atmospheric transparency window (ATW) regime (8-13 μm). Due to their efficiency and adaptive nature, photonic radiative coolers offer a promising avenue as an adaptable cooling technology. However, a major challenge in transitioning this technology from laboratory to practical use remains. To address this barrier, large area, scalable and low-cost methods and materials need to be implemented. In this
