An innovative VO2 metasurface designs for adaptive radiation cooling smart windows
Buildings energy conservation demand climate-responsive thermal solutions. Conventional radiative coolers cannot balance efficiency and climate response, with fixed reflectivity and irreversible phase changes wasting 48 % energy via overcooling in temperate zones, conflicting with carbon neutrality. We engineered a climate-responsive radiative metasurface through vertically aligned vanadium dioxide (VO2) nanosheets with cavity-modulated dual-band switching. Notably, the device demonstrates a thermal emissivity modulation of 0.85 within the thermal spectrum, a luminous transmittance of 68.8 % and a solar absorption(A) modulation of -3.3 % (Ametal=27.7 %) in the solar spectrum. Our findings indicate that both thermal emissivity and solar absorption can be dynamically tuned using an equivalent capacitance-inductance (LC) resonator switch between the VO2 nanosheets. This work showcases a multiband emitter capable of modulating both solar and radiative cooling properties, paving the way for the advancement of adaptive radiation coolers.
期刊介绍:
The aim of the journal is to provide a respectful outlet for ''sound science'' papers in all research areas on surfaces and interfaces. We define sound science papers as papers that describe new and well-executed research, but that do not necessarily provide brand new insights or are merely a description of research results.
Surfaces and Interfaces publishes research papers in all fields of surface science which may not always find the right home on first submission to our Elsevier sister journals (Applied Surface, Surface and Coatings Technology, Thin Solid Films)
