Lately, scientists have been investigating how a passive cooling technique called sky or radiative cooling can be turbo-charged with sun-blocking nanomaterials that remove heat away from the rooftops of buildings.
Although advances have been made, this environmentally friendly technology is not an ordinary thing, because investigators have struggled to increase the cooling capabilities of materials.
A new study, headed by engineers from the University at Buffalo (UB), has made considerable advancement in this field. Published in the
MIT researchers and colleagues recently discovered an important - and unexpected - electronic property of graphene, a material discovered only about 17.
