Abstract Flexible thermoelectric devices hold significant promise in wearable electronics owing to their capacity for green energy generation, temperature sensing, and comfortable wear. However, the simultaneous achievement of excellent multifunctional sensing power generation poses a challenge these devices. Here, ordered tellurium‐based hetero‐nanowire films are designed flexible by optimizing Seebeck coefficient factor. The obtained can efficiently detect both object environment temperature, thermal conductivity, heat proximity, airflow. In addition, combining units with radiative cooling materials exhibits remarkable management capabilities, preventing device overheating avoiding degradation generation. Impressively, this resistance extreme low earth orbit environments. fabrication such provides innovative insights into multimodal harvesting.

Thermal radiation control has garnered growing interest for its ability to provide localized cooling and heating without energy consumption. However, direct application harvesting remains largely underexplored. In this work, we demonstrate a novel system that leverages daytime radiative solar technologies continuously power charging-free thermally regenerative electrochemical cycle (TREC) devices, turning ubiquitous low-grade ambient heat into electricity. Notably, by harnessing substantial 35 °C temperature differential solely through passive effects, the integrated exhibits cell voltage of 50 mV specific capacity exceeding 20 mAh g–1 PB. This work unlocks potential readily available sustainable electricity generation.

Daytime radiative cooling dissipates heat from surfaces by reflecting sunlight and emitting infrared radiation to outer space, featuring zero-energy consumption. Wood-based coolers have received more attention due their high emissivity, sustainability, low cost. However, they often degrade under ultraviolet (UV) exposure, resulting in a poor efficiency. Herein, inspired the structure-functionality relationship Saharan silver ants, an outdoor durable wood (DCW) is developed that achieves excellent comprehensive performance via assembly of photonic structure Mica@TiO2 on delignified wood, including both solar reflectance (0.958), emittance (0.95), mechanical strength (47 MPa), UV resistance. The unique can prevent breaking C-O-C skeleton direct sunlight; daytime efficiency DCW maintain 4.5 °C after 720 h exposure. This work paves way for development materials energy savings.
