Scalable-manufactured randomized glass-polymer hybrid metamaterial for daytime radiative cooling

Zhai, Yao, Ma, Yaoguang, David, Sabrina N., Zhao, Dongliang, Lou, Runnan, Tan, Gang, Yang, Ronggui, Yin, Xiaobo·2017·Science

Abstract

The lazy way to keep cool in the sun: Passive radiative cooling requires a material that radiates heat away while allowing solar radiation to pass through. Zhai et al. solve this riddle by constructing a metamaterial composed of a polymer layer embedded with microspheres, backed with a thin layer of silver (see the Perspective by Zhang). The result is an easy-to-manufacture material near the theoretical limit for daytime radiative cooling. The translucent and flexible film can be made in large quantities for a variety of energy technology applications. Science , this issue p. 1062 ; see also p. 1023

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.
