For quantitatively analysis, the reflectance spectra obtained from UV-Vis-NIR and FTIR equiped with the integration spheres were used to measure the absorptance and emitance values, respectively. To optimize the performance, relevant parameters such as the concentration of sol precursor and the dip-drying cycle were investigated. The increase of the concentration of copper sol precursor in range of 0.1 - 0.3 M increased the absorptance value, likewise with the increase of the dip-drying cycles. The maximum absorptance of =72% with a spectrally selective absorber profile was achieved by a SSA material synthesized using 0.3 M copper nitrate, 0.3 M propionic acid, and 8 times dip-drying cycles. The emitance value of =6.63% for this coating was recorded. Good optical performance of spectrally selective absorber and the operational simplicity of the synthesis process make this coating have high prospect as spectrally selective absorber materialencopper oxide thin filmsol-gel dip-coatingabsorptanceemittanceoptimizationUR-Proceedings
