, 2012 ABSTARCT: Nowadays, water heating by using the solar energy has been spread all over the world. The studies on solar water heating system were stimulated the researchers due to the scarcity of natural energy resources, like fossil fuel and natural gas as well as the rising and rapidly fluctuating prices for these resources.

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Using femtosecond ablation, we show that an ordered, stoichiometric crystalline PdSe2 target can be controllably converted into a stable, disordered, non‐stoichiometric, and highly functional amorphous nanomaterial, PdSe2−x${\rm PdSe}_{2-x}$. The obtained nanoparticles offer significant advantages over conventional planar plasmon‐free substrates due to

From Copper Nanoparticles to Alumina Encapsulated Porous Layers With Enhanced Mechanical Stability
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.This study analyzes the synthesis‐structure relation of individual Cu nanoparticles and highly porous nanoparticle‐based Cu films using different sputtering‐based nanoparticle sources. The inherent mechanical instability of the films is tackled with Al2O3 encapsulation through atomic layer deposition, enabling 4‐fold increase in critical force in ...

A Comprehensive Review of Waste‐Derived Materials for Solar Still Performance Enhancement
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Solar desalination reduces energy use and produces freshwater sustainably, but its productivity is limited and cannot meet rising demand. Thus, solar desalination system improvements are sought to boost water productivity. Waste materials are abundantly available and burden the environment, making them low‐cost enhancers for solar desalination
