Optimized Antimony‐Doped Tin Oxide Thin Films With Enhanced Electrical Properties for Low‐Emissivity Architectural Coatings

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Antimony‐doped tin oxide (ATO) thin films were deposited by aerosol‐assisted chemical vapor deposition (AACVD) and systematically investigated to establish correlations between Sb doping level, structural properties and optoelectronic performance. Optimized films exhibited low sheet resistance, high carrier concentrations, and high visible transparency

Ion Superhighways in a Hierarchical Polymer‐Ceramic Membrane Enable Rapid and Selective Lithium Extraction

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A flexible PDMS‐LATP polymer‐ceramic membrane creates lithium‐ion “superhighways” for rapid and selective extraction from complex brines. The amorphous PDMS matrix suppresses nonselective leakage and stabilizes the ceramic network, while LATP provides preferential Li+ conduction.

Black Hole Quencher‐Enhanced Plasmonic Photothermal Conversion

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Researchers have developed a universal method to boost plasmonic photothermal conversion by attaching black hole quencher (BHQ) molecules to matched metal nanostructures. This hybrid approach increases efficiency by roughly threefold, reaching up to 69.1% in the near‐infrared‐II window.

Adaptive Responses of Tropical Crops: A Multi‐Scale Omics Integrated Perspective

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Tropical crops integrate genomic, morphological, physiological, and ecological adaptations to thrive under extreme and variable environments. This review highlights how natural selection, domestication, and breeding shape stress resilience, resource‐use strategies, and productivity in sugarcane, banana, cassava, rubber and oil palm, offering new routes

Design and Development of a Novel Solar Thermal Receiver [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
One of the most widely used solar collectors for process heating and large scale electricity generation is the parabolic trough collector (PTC), in which a tube placed at the focus of the parabola receives concentrated solar radiation.

Thermal stress analysis of solar tubular receivers

open access: yes, 2020
Los receptores centrales solares son sistemas complejos bajo condiciones de trabajo severas: el flujo de calor cíclico durante el día que causa estrés térmico, y el contacto con un fluido corrosivo, que circula a través de los tubos que componen los paneles del receptor. Las condiciones de contorno mecánicas de estos tubos, fuertemente hiperestáticas y
