摘要: Daytime radiative cooling is a promising passive cooling technology for combating global warming. Existing daytime radiative coolers usually show whitish colors due to their broadband high solar reflectivity, which severely impedes applications in real-life situations with aesthetic demands and effective display. However, there is a trade-off between vivid colors and high cooling performance because colors are often produced by absorption of visible light, decreasing net cooling power. To break this trade-off, we design multilayered structures with coupled nanocavities and produce structural colors with high cooling performance. Using this design, we can obtain colorful radiative coolers which show a larger color gamut (occupying 17.7% sRGB area) than reported ones. We further fabricate colorful multilayered radiative coolers (CMRCs) and demonstrate they have temperature drops of 3.4 - 4.4 degrees on average based on outdoor experiments. These CMRCs are promising in thermal management of electronic/optoelectronic devices and outdoor facilities.
