For this to occur, two conditions must be met: (1) the body must efficiently backscatter most of the incident solar radiation (0.2–2.5 µm), effectively behaving like a white object, and (2) it must exhibit strong thermal emissivity within the atmospheric transparency window (ATW) in the 7–14 µm range. According to Kirchhoff’s law of thermal radiation, a body in thermal equilibrium has an emissivity equal to its absorptivity. This implies that designing a perfect absorber in a spectral range corresponding to blackbody radiation is equivalent to designing a perfect emitter in that range. Following this principle, our objective is to design and fabricate a metamaterial that functions as a passive daytime radiative cooler. Ultimately, we aim to develop a material that is easy to fabricate and capable of lowering the temperature of a target object. In this study, we investigate a potential structure consisting of microballoons or voids embedded in PDMS. PDMS is chosen for its excellent emissivity in the ATW, while the microballoon provides porosity that enhances reflectance in the solar spectrum. The proposed design is numerically characterized, and theoretical predictions are compared with experimental data of fabricated samples. Numerical simulations are performed using the Finite Element Method and effective medium parameter retrieval to accurately model the system’s behavior.
