Near-infrared light from the sun is reflected off the Bragg mirror. The silver substrate facilitates visibility with small holes that allow light to pass through in a design evoking an insect screen. Lastly, the PDMS coating counters far-infrared radiation.

Scientists have developed a groundbreaking cooling technology that could revolutionize how we manage heat in electronics and potentially in larger systems like data centers. This new method, detailed in a study published in the journal *Science*, involves a material that can cool down by emitting heat in the form of infrared radiation directly into space, bypassing the need for traditional cooling systems like fans or air conditioners. The material, a thin layer of glass and oxide, reflects most of the sunlight while allowing the surface to radiate heat away, achieving temperatures lower than the surrounding air. This passive cooling technique could significantly reduce energy consumption, offering a sustainable solution to heat management in various applications, from smartphones to large-scale industrial cooling.
