Joseph Peoples works on radiative cooling, a technology where specially designed materials or paints reflect sunlight and emit heat to the sky to passively cool buildings, electronics, and other systems without using energy. His work combines materials development (like nanoparticle-based paints and films) with computational tools, including machine learning and Monte Carlo simulations, to predict and optimize how light and heat move through these materials. Earlier work in his publication record also touches on semiconductor nanostructures for infrared sensing applications.
