Radiative cooling (RC) is a carbon‐neutral cooling technology that utilizes thermal radiation
to dissipate heat from the Earth's surface to the cold outer space. Research in the field of RC …

The rapid development of information technology has led to urgent requirements for high
efficiency and ultralow power consumption. In the past few decades, neuromorphic …

We present a novel, structurally simple, multifunctional broadband absorber. It consists of a
patterned vanadium dioxide film and a metal plate spaced by a dielectric layer. Temperature …

Terahertz functional devices have been instrumental in the development of terahertz
technology. Moreover, the advent of metamaterials has greatly contributed to the …

Terahertz radiation has become an important diagnostic tool in the development of new
technologies. However, the diffraction limit prevents terahertz radiation (λ≈ 0.01–3 mm) …

The appearance of the Planckian time τ Pl= ℏ/k BT is reviewed in both conventional and
unconventional metals. A pedagogical discussion of the various different timescales …

The sun (∼ 6,000 K) and outer space (∼ 3 K) are two significant renewable thermodynamic
resources for human beings on Earth. The solar thermal conversion by photothermal (PT) …

Metal-to-insulator transition (MIT) behaviors accompanied by a rapid reversible phase
transition in vanadium dioxide (VO2) have gained substantial attention for investigations into …

Metasurfaces have become a rapidly growing field of research in recent years due to their
exceptional abilities in light manipulation and versatility in ultrathin optical applications. They …

As a strongly correlated electron material, vanadium dioxide (VO 2) has been a focus of
research since its discovery in 1959, owing to its well-known metal–insulator transition …
