Radiative cooling becomes more efficient with trenches and polymers
In a new paper published in eLight, a team of scientists, led by Professor Baohua Jia of RMIT University in Melbourne, have developed a roll-to-roll polymer film for improved radiative cooling. The novel technique is a metasurface concept enabled by arranging 3D trench-like structures within the thin layer of the polymer film.

How are chemical elements produced in our Universe? Where do heavy elements like gold and uranium come from? Using computer simulations, a research team shows that the synthesis of heavy elements is typical for certain black holes with orbiting matter accumulations, so-called accretion disks.

In research that could jump-start interest into an enigmatic class of materials known as quasicrystals, MIT scientists and colleagues have discovered a relatively simple, flexible way to create new atomically thin versions that can be tuned for important phenomena. In work reported in a recent issue of Nature, they describe doing just that to make the materials exhibit superconductivity and more.
