Sustainability in Solar Thermal Power Plants
, 2013 In the last two decades, there has been growing interest in developing indicators to measure sustainability, which is currently seen as a delicate balance between the economic, environ‐ mental and social health of a community, a nation or even our planet. The current measure of sustainability tends to be an amalgam of economic, social and environmental

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Molecular doping of conjugated polymers is fundamentally constrained by thermodynamic phase behavior. This Perspective reframes doping efficiency and stability in terms of miscibility limits, binodals, and solvus boundaries, highlighting the role of effective interaction parameters and charge transfer.

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.The energetic offset between the donor and the acceptor components in organic photoactive layers is central to the tradeoff between photovoltage and photocurrent losses. This Perspective covers the most important issues surrounding this topic in non‐fullerene acceptor blends, from the difficulty of accurately determining state energies and driving ...

Leaftronics: Bio‐Fractal Scaffolds From Leaf Venation for Low‐Waste Electronics
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.“Leaftronics” transforms naturally evolved leaf venation into quasi‐fractal scaffolds for sustainable electronics. Polymer‐infiltrated leaf skeletons can be used to fabricate ultra‐smooth, reflow‐ and thin‐film‐compatible decomposable substrates, while making the same lignocellulose networks conducting results in flexible transparent electrodes.

Solar thermal power plants. Where are we coming from, where are we bound to?
, 1986 The concept of constructing solar thermal power plants originated from the idea to replace the fossil fired by solar fired thermal power plants. Difficulties mostly encountered in such enterprises can be basically traced back to the fact that solar ...
