[0021] Therefore, when the passive cooling layer of the present invention is applied to the surface of precision optical windows such as cameras, infrared sensors, and automotive optical systems, it can not only maintain high transmittance in the visible light band, ensuring that the image clarity and color fidelity are not affected, but also efficiently reflect near-infrared radiation from the solar spectrum, suppressing the heat accumulation of the device itself. At the same time, it maintains high emissivity in the mid- and far-infrared bands, achieving spontaneous cooling. This effectively solves the technical contradiction that traditional radiation cooling materials cannot simultaneously achieve transparency and efficient heat dissipation, and promotes the application of radiation cooling technology in high-precision, highly integrated optical devices.

[0031] To facilitate understanding of the present invention, it will be described in more detail below. However, it should be understood that the present invention can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments or examples described herein. Rather, these embodiments or examples are provided to make the disclosure of the present invention more thorough and complete.

[0032] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein in the specification of this invention is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments or examples only and is not intended to limit the invention. The optional scope of the term "and / or" as used herein includes any one of two or more of the related listed items, as well as any and all combinations of the related listed items, including any two related listed items, any more related listed items, or a combination of all related listed items.

[0033] In this invention, numerical ranges are involved. Unless otherwise specified, the numerical ranges are considered continuous and include the minimum and maximum values ​​of the range, as well as every value between the minimum and maximum values. Furthermore, when the range refers to integers, it includes every integer between the minimum and maximum values ​​of the range. Additionally, when multiple ranges are provided to describe features or characteristics, the ranges may be merged. In other words, unless otherwise specified, all ranges disclosed herein should be understood to include any and all subranges to which they are included.

[0034] The passive cooling layer provided by this invention includes layers A, B, and C stacked in a non-periodic manner. It is understood that "non-periodic" means that the stacking order and / or thickness of layers A, B, and C do not exhibit a regular repetitive structure. For example, layers A, B, and C are not stacked in a repeating pattern such as A, B, C, A, B, C, or A, C, B, A, C, B, etc. The thicknesses of layers A, B, and C are not all equal, nor do they increase or decrease in a regular manner. Similarly, the thicknesses of all layers A, all layers B, or all layers C are not all equal, nor do they increase or decrease in a regular manner.

[0035] Wherein, layer A is selected from oxide layers with a refractive index of n1, 1.4≤n1≤1.43, layer B is selected from oxide layers with a refractive index of n2, 1.6≤n2≤1.9, layer C is selected from oxide layers with a refractive index of n3, 2.1≤n3≤2.15, and the total number of layers A, B and C is greater than or equal to 90.

[0036] Therefore, by selectively stacking three oxide layers with specific refractive indices aperiodically to more than 90 layers, a one-dimensional aperiodic photonic crystal structure can be constructed. Then, by utilizing the difference in refractive index between layers and matching the optical thickness, multiple interference and resonance effects are formed in a wide spectral range of 0.3μm to 25μm. This results in high transmission in the visible light band of 0.4μm to 0.7μm, high reflection in the ultraviolet band of 0.3μm to 0.4μm and the near-infrared band of 0.7μm to 2.5μm to block solar thermal radiation, and efficient radiative heat dissipation in the mid-far-infrared band of 2.5μm to 25μm. Ultimately, without relying on external energy input, the structure achieves an integrated function of spectral selective modulation and spontaneous cooling.

[0037] To achieve an effective selective reflection structure within the ultraviolet to near-infrared spectral band (0.3 μm to 2.5 μm) through sufficient refractive index alternation and interface interference, and to provide a sufficient basis for intrinsic material absorption and resonance modulation for high emission in the mid-to-far-infrared band (2.5 μm to 25 μm), in some embodiments, the total number of layers A is greater than or equal to 25, the total number of layers B is greater than or equal to 25, and the total number of layers C is greater than or equal to 35. Simultaneously, to avoid performance degradation in a particular band due to singular optical characteristics and to ensure a balanced and synergistic overall spectral response, the total number of layers A, B, and C is less than or equal to 50% of the total number of passive cooling layers.

[0038] To ensure that each layer in the passive cooling layer can effectively participate in optical interference over a wide spectral range, the thickness of each of the A, B, and C layers is greater than or equal to 5 nm and less than or equal to 1000 nm, while the thickness of the passive cooling layer is greater than or equal to 10 μm.

[0039] In some embodiments, the total number of layers A, B, and C can be 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99, 100, 101, 102, 103, 104, 105, etc. In order to achieve the best balance between optical performance, fabrication efficiency, and structural stability, and to ensure the synergistic control effect of high visible light transmittance, high ultraviolet and near-infrared reflectance, and high mid- and far-infrared emissivity in a wide spectral range of 0.3 μm to 25 μm, the total number of layers A, B, and C is preferably 94 to 98, and more preferably 96.

[0040] When the total number of passive cooling layers is 96, in one embodiment, the first layer of the passive cooling layer is layer A, with a thickness of 190nm to 193nm; the second layer is layer B, with a thickness of 27nm to 30nm; the third layer is layer A, with a thickness of 58nm to 60nm; the fourth layer is layer C, with a thickness of 5nm to 6nm; the fifth layer is layer A, with a thickness of 824nm to 827nm; the sixth layer is layer B, with a thickness of 49nm to 51nm; the seventh layer is layer A, with a thickness of 16nm to 18nm; the eighth layer is layer C, with a thickness of 118nm to 120nm; the ninth layer is layer A, with a thickness of 171nm to 173nm; the tenth layer is layer C, with a thickness of 100nm to 102nm; the first...
