Heat-shedding with photonic structures: radiative cooling and its potential
Se‐Yeon Heo, Gil Ju Lee, Young Min Song
Abstract
Radiative cooling, which is based on radiative heat exchange between the universe and Earth, can provide a passive and renewable route to reducing energy consumption. This review highlights recent progress and continued efforts for radiative cooling.
