Microstructured surfaces for colored and non-colored sky radiative cooling

Résumé

We propose a simple structure for passive sky radiative cooling made of a surface-textured layer of silica on a silver substrate. Using electromagnetic simulations, we show that the optical properties of such structures are near-ideal, due to the large reflectivity of silver in the solar spectrum and the large emissivity of silica in the infrared. Surface texturation is key to obtain near-unity emissivity in the infrared. By using thin transparent layers sandwiched between silver layers at the bottom of the structures, resonant absorption can be obtained, leading to coloration while keeping acceptable radiative cooling power. Using multiple resonator increases the color palette that can be obtained.
