Abstract

The nano-kirigami metasurfaces have controllable 3D geometric parameters and dynamic transformation functions and therefore provide a strong spectral regulation capability of thermal emission. Here, the authors propose and demonstrate a dynamic and multifunctional thermal emitter based on deformable nano-kirigami structures, which can be actuated by electronic bias or mechanical compression. Selective emittance and the variation of radiation intensity/wavelength are achieved by adjusting the geometric shape and the transformation of the structures. Particularly, a thermal management device based on a composite structure of nano-kirigami and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) thin film is developed, which can dynamically switch the state of cooling and heating by simply pressing the device. The proposed thermal emitter designs with strong regulation capability and multiple dynamic adjustment strategies are desirable for energy and sensing applications and inspire further development of infrared emitters.
