Radiative cooling, what’s next?
Radiative coatings make use of omnipresent surface thermal radiation for passive cooling of objects without consuming energy or emitting greenhouse gases, and are a promising energy-saving strategy at scale to address the climate change problem. In the last decade, thanks to advances in photonics and micro/nano-fabrication technologies, we have ...

Vapor condensation with daytime radiative cooling [PDF]
Significance Traditionally, the cooling for passive vapor condensation is mainly provided by convection and conduction. However, these mechanisms do not work when the vapor temperature is near the ambient air temperature. At such temperatures, radiative condensation remains effective.

Spectral Emissivity Profiles for Radiative Cooling
Passive radiative cooling, an innovative approach for cooling buildings and devices, has attracted considerable attention in recent years. In particular, the spectral emissivity distribution of surfaces plays a crucial role for an object to radiate at wavelengths for which the atmosphere is transparent and solar irradiance is low.

Moisture‐radiative cooling instability [PDF]
AbstractRadiative‐convective equilibrium (RCE)—the statistical equilibrium state of the atmosphere where convection and radiation interact in the absence of lateral transport—is widely used as a basic‐state model of the tropical atmosphere. The possibility that RCE may be unstable to development of large‐scale circulation has been raised by recent ...
