Optical properties of La2O3 and HfO2 for radiative cooling via multiscale simulations
Radiative cooling materials have gained prominence as a zero-energy solution for mitigating global warming.How-ever,a comprehensive understanding of the atomic-scale optical properties and macroscopic optical performance of radia-tive cooling materials remains elusive,limiting insight into the underlying physics of their optical response and cooling efficacy.La2O3 and HfO2,which represent rare earth and third/fourth subgroup inorganic oxides,respectively,show promise for radiative cooling applications.In this study,we used multiscale simulations to investigate the optical properties of La2O3 and HfO2 across a broad spectrum.First-principles calculations revealed their dielectric functions and intrinsic refractive indices,and the results indicated that the slightly smaller bandgap of La2O3 compared to HfO2 induces a higher refractive index in the solar band.Additionally,three-phonon scattering was found to provide more accurate infrared optical properties than two-phonon scattering,which enhanced the emissivity in the sky window.Monte Carlo simulations were also used to determine the macroscopic optical properties of La2O3 and HfO2 coatings.Based on the simulated results,we identified that the particle size and particle volume fraction play a dominant role in the optical properties.Our findings underscore the potential of La2O3 and HfO2 nanocomposites for environment-friendly cooling and offer a new approach for high-throughput screening of optical materials through multiscale simulations.
