Abstract
The invention provides devices for active modification of thermal radiation, the devices comprising: (i) a substrate; (ii) one or more polymeric permeable membranes comprising an ionic liquid electrolyte; (iii) one or more electrodes comprising carbon nanotubes deposited onto the surface of at least one of the one or more polymeric membranes; and (iv) a protective encapsulation layer. The invention also provides methods of making such devices.
Claims14
A method of making a device for active modification of thermal radiation, the method comprising:
- (a) providing a non-metallic substrate;
- (b) depositing a liquid composition comprising carbon nanotubes onto the substrate to form a first electrode;
- (c) depositing a liquid comprising a polymer and an ionic liquid onto the first electrode to form a polymeric permeable membrane comprising the ionic liquid;
- and
- (d) depositing a liquid composition comprising carbon nanotubes onto the polymeric permeable membrane to form a second electrode.
