Technical effectiveness of cement-based mortar for high-reflective building envelope through building energy simulations: preliminary results

open access: yesActa Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2022
In areas with high levels of solar radiation, decreasing the amount of solar energy absorbed by the building envelope is useful to reduce the need of air conditioning and "heat island" effects.

Cu(In,Ga)Se2 Solar Cells Integrated with Subwavelength Structured Cover Glass Fabricated by One-Step Self-Masked Etching

open access: yesMicromachines, 2020
We report an anti-reflective cover glass for Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS) thin film solar cells. Subwavelength structures (SWSs) were fabricated on top of a cover glass using one-step self-masked etching.

Performance simulation of polymer-based nanoparticle and void dispersed photonic structures for radiative cooling

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Passive radiative cooling is an emerging field and needs further development of material. Hence, the computational approach needs to establish for effective metamaterial design before fabrication.

Investigating the Effect of Dust Accumulation on the Solar Reflectivity of Coating Materials for Cool Roof Applications

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
Cool roofs use reflective materials or coatings to reflect a portion of the incident solar radiation. This results in a lowering the surface temperature of the cool roof compared to black roofs, and thus helps reduce the cooling energy loads during the ...

Anti-reflection for monocrystalline silicon from diamond-like carbon films deposited by magnetron sputtering

open access: yesMaterials Research Express, 2021
In this work, diamond-like carbon (DLC) films used as anti-reflective coatings for monocrystalline silicon were deposited by magnetron sputtering for potential application in solar cells.

Reflections on the solar-stellar connection [PDF]

open access: yesPublications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 1985
The achievements of optical astronomy in the investigation of the sun as a typical star in connection with the study of stellar evolution are reviewed, with emphasis given to the accomplishments of George Ellery Hale. Consideration is given to the discovery of magnetic fields on the sun; measurements of temperatures in the solar corona; and the early ...
