Solar Thermal Energy Conversion Enhanced by Selective Metafilm Absorber under Multiple Solar Concentrations at High Temperatures [PDF]
, 2019 Concentrating solar power, particularly parabolic trough system with solar concentrations less than 50, requires spectrally selective solar absorbers that are thermally stable at high temperatures of 400degC above to achieve high efficiency. In this work, the solar-thermal performance of a selective multilayer metafilm absorber is characterized along ...

Covalently‐Bonded Diaphite Nanoplatelet with Engineered Electronic Properties of Diamond
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A novel approach to engineering the electronic properties of diamond is reported on the diaphite nanoplatelet consisting of (11¯${{\bar{1}}}$1) planes of diamond nanoplatelet covalently bonded with graphite (0001) planes. The strong sp3/sp2‐hybridized interfacial covalent bonding induces the electron transfer from diamond to graphite, resulting in a ...

The Edge of the Solar System [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2001 The population of the Kuiper Belt within 50 AU of the Sun has likely been severely depleted by gravitational perturbations from the giant planets, particularly Neptune. The density of Kuiper Belt objects is expected to be two orders of magnitude higher just beyond 50 AU, where planetary perturbations are insignificant. In 1998 and 1999, we surveyed for

Imbalanced Surface Charge Induced Phase Segregation in Mixed Halide Perovskites
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The key factor determining the phase segregation in mixed halide perovskites (MHP) is the intrinsic imbalanced surface charges in the crystal lattice. MHP films with excellent crystallinity and surface morphology can suffer severe phase segregation.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Graded refractive index (GRI) structures are prepared from the layer‐by‐layer spray coating of the mesoporous SiO2 nanoparticles, showing high solar transparency and thermal emissivity. Under outdoor conditions, after 50 days, the GRI‐coated photovoltaics show on average 6.65 ± 1.48 °C lower than that of the non‐coated references, maintaining 80.9 ± 8 ...

Full Spectrum Diffused and Beamed Solar Energy Application Using Optical Fibre [PDF]
arXiv, 2007 Existing solar energy application systems use small fraction of full spectrum of solar energy. So attempts are made to show how full spectrum solar energy can be used for diffused and beamed form of incident solar energy. Luminescent Solar Concentrator (LSC) principle with optical fibre in diffused sun light and dielectric mirror separation technique ...
