Scalable Flexible Hybrid Membranes with Photonic Structures for Daytime Radiative Cooling
Abstract
Passive radiative cooling technology can cool down an object by reflecting solar light and radiating heat simultaneously. However, photonic radiators generally require stringent and nanoscale‐precision fabrication, which greatly restricts mass production and renders them less attractive for large‐area applications. A simple, inexpensive, and scalable electrospinning method is demonstrated for fabricating a high‐performance flexible hybrid membrane radiator (FHMR) that consists of polyvinylidene fluoride/tetraethyl orthosilicate fibers with numerous nanopores inside and SiO 2 microspheres randomly distributed across its surface. Even without silver back‐coating, a 300 µm thick FHMR has an average infrared emissivity >0.96 and reflects ≈97% of solar irradiance. Moreover, it exhibits great flexibility and superior strength. The daytime cooling performance this device is experimentally demonstrated with an average radiative cooling power of 61 W m−2 and a temperature decrease up to 6 °C under a peak solar intensity of 1000 W m−2. This performance is comparable to those of state‐of‐the‐art devices.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
