Advances in flexible and wearable energy‐related devices increase the need for highly efficient, low‐cost, ultrathin solar selective absorber coatings (SSACs). Herein, the fabrication of nanogradient WOx‐based SSACs with excellent properties, including a superior solar absorptance of 0.93, an outstanding thermal robustness of up to 300 °C, and substrate independence, is reported. More importantly, the thickness of WOx‐based SSACs is only approximately 100 nm, which is substantially thinner than all other reported SSACs. These features arise from the two intrinsically absorptive WOxlayers on a thin nanoplasmonic W layer. The deposition process is based on self‐doped reactive sputtering via limited tungsten oxidation due to a small amount of oxygen. The WOx‐based SSACs on a flexible polyimide sheet demonstrate stable performance, strong adhesion, and bendable nature. The proposed self‐doped fabrication process provides a new way to design cost‐effective ultrathin SSACs to meet the demand for large‐scale flexible energy harvesting and supply applications.
