Abstract: A filter for infrared radiation is provided as a photonic cooler coating. The filter for infrared radiation includes a first metal oxide; a second metal oxide; and a metal layer, wherein the first metal oxide layer is provided between the second metal oxide layer and the metal layer.

Abstract: A composite material for electromagnetic interference shielding is provided. The composite material comprises an electrically conductive microscale films based on Transition Metal Carbo-Chalcogenides (Nb2S2C) stack layers. The stack is effective to provide a substantial electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding. Once decorated with special metallic nanoparticles made mainly with noble metals including Au, Ag and Pd, this efficiency against the EMI is even enhanced. The disclosed technology introduces a special coating that can be applied to electronic devices and materials. This coating acts as a shield that protects these devices from different types of interference that can disrupt their signals and performance. This coating can work on devices that bend or move, and effectively blocks interference across a wide range of frequencies. As such, the disclosed technology keeps devices working smoothly even in places with a lot of electronic “noise” without restricting their flexibility or range of use.

Abstract: There are provided methods for the real-time radiation-assisted fabrication of freeform three-dimensional structures. For example, one of these methods comprise depositing on a substrate, by means of nozzle, a filament comprising a curable polymer, while exposing the filament to a radiation so as to cure the curable polymer, and while moving the substrate and the nozzle, with respect to one another, according to the x-axis, y-axis, and z-axis or at least two of these axes. Such a method permits to obtain a freeform three-dimensional structure having at least one point of contact with the substrate.
