A low-cost method for solar-thermal conversion that's simpler and greener
A low-cost method for solar-thermal conversion that's simpler and greener
Researchers have developed a simple, low-cost, and environmentally sound method for fabricating a highly-efficient selective solar absorber (SSA) to convert sunlight into heat for energy-related applications. The team used a 'dip and dry' approach whereby strips coated with a reactive metal are dipped into a solution containing ions of a less reactive metal to create plasmonic-nanoparticle-coated foils that perform as well or better than existing SSAs, regardless of the sun's angle.
Researchers conducted simulations considering and neglecting hydrodynamic interactions to determine whether or not these interactions cause the large...
Researchers have harnessed the domino effect to design deployable systems that expand quickly with a small push and are stable and locked into place after...
Researchers build on previous studies into detection technologies and reconstruction algorithms for muon tomography, to develop a full-scale muon tomograph...
