Advanced Materials, EarlyView.In this work, low bandgap (≈1.55 eV) semitransparent perovskite solar cells (ST‐PSCs) having thin (thickness < ≈100 nm) perovskite layers and transparent conductive oxide‐based rear electrodes are fabricated using vacuum‐deposition methods. Two different ST‐PSCs demonstrated a high light utilization efficiency value of 4.2 (PCE: 9.26% and AVT: 45.3 ...

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Elephant‐skin‐inspired crack networks are programmed in porous diatomaceous earth (DE)‐cement composites using substrate‐guided, stress‐concentration induced fracture. The resulting crack lattices act as capillary conduits that redistribute water, while the porous matrix stores moisture.

A cold storage air conditioning system with energy-efficient supercooled water ice slurry generation by using heat recovery and regeneration [PDF]
E3S Web of ConferencesIce slurry cold storage technology using supercooled water is considered one of the most efficient methods. In traditional systems, to prevent ice crystal blockage in the supercooled water exchanger, the water from ice tank is typically heated to 0.5°C ...

Morphology‐Controlled Silica Nanoparticle Coatings for Transparent Radiative Cooling
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Transparent radiative cooling coatings are achieved by immobilizing solid and hollow silica spheres on glass. Particle morphology within sub‐monolayer coatings is shown to govern the trade‐off between visible and atmospheric window reflectance. Hollow‐sphere structures enable reduced thermal emission losses while preserving transparency, highlighting ...
