Adaptive and Highly Efficient Thermoregulation Based on Multi-Dimensional Janus Film. [PDF]

open access: yesAdv Sci (Weinh)
A switchable TiO2/MXene/PDMS Janus membrane enables dual‐mode radiative cooling and solar heating, achieving sub‐ambient cooling of 17.89°C and above‐ambient heating of 13.82°C. Adaptive temperature regulation was demonstrated with a low power integrated autonomous smart curtain system, providing a sustainable and energy‐efficient alternative for ...

Self-Sustaining Hybrid Passive Cooler Enabling Highly Effective Thermal Management for Outdoor Electronics. [PDF]

open access: yesAdv Sci (Weinh)
An innovative hybrid passive cooler integrates a porous radiative coating and an atmospheric moisture‐harvesting hydrogel within a melamine sponge skeleton, synergizing radiative cooling, sensible‐heat absorption, and latent‐heat evaporation. It maintains an average 8.3°C sub‐ambient cooling under sunlight and a maximum ∼42.4°C drop under 2000 W·m−2 ...
