Bio‐Based Piezoelectrets from Polylactic Acid and Natural Waxes: A Sustainable Approach for Energy Harvesting

open access: yesAdvanced Energy and Sustainability Research, EarlyView.
A novel polylactic acid/wax electret composite is developed, combining biodegradability with long‐term charge stability. The study investigates charge storage behavior, structural morphology, and thermal performance. Results reveal a notable charge retention recovery after thermal stress and exhibit stable surface potential over 2 kV. This eco‐friendly

Oriented for Efficiency: Textured Se Thin Films Fabricated by Vapor Transport Deposition for Emerging Photovoltaic Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Energy and Sustainability Research, EarlyView.
A low‐temperature vapor transport deposition (VTD) method enables controlled crystallographic texture in Se thin films. Higher annealing temperatures promote vertical (003)‐preferred orientation, enhancing film quality and device efficiency. Optimized morphology and orientation yield solar cells with > 4% efficiency under AM1.5 G and up to 10% under ...
