Uninsulated Pipes of Solar Water Heater
, 2017 Uninsulated pipes of solar waters heaters in Israel increase national electricity consumption by 200 millions kWh/year, 40 millions USD per year. Simple solution having 2-4 months return of investment period can stop this waste. This work introduces energy balance of thermosyphonic solar water heater (SWH) without pipes' thermal insulation.

Halide Perovskite: A Rich Source of Thermal Insulator
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Halide perovskites exhibit ultralow thermal conductivity driven by intrinsic lattice softness and strong anharmonicity, falling below conventional defect‐engineering limits. Weak metavalent bonding, A‐site rattling, and dynamic octahedral tilting drive phonon scattering to the Ioffe–Regel limit, where wave‐like tunneling replaces particle‐like ...

Solar Water Heaters - The Next Generation [PDF]
, 2001 The U.S. Department of Energy is pursuing an aggressive goal to cut the cost of solar water-heating systems in half. Replacing metal and glass components with less expensive plastic ones is a key strategy for that goal.

Black Hole Quencher‐Enhanced Plasmonic Photothermal Conversion
Advanced 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.

Scalable MoS2/Si Photodiode Arrays From Roll‐to‐Roll Mechanical Exfoliation
Advanced Science, EarlyView.A dry roll‐to‐roll route transforms mechanically exfoliated MoS2 flake networks into silicon‐integrated photodiode arrays. The MoS2/Si junctions generate photovoltaic output without applied bias, allowing illuminated pixels to locate light spots and reconstruct simple images.
