They are reportedly able to absorb the full visible solar radiation from all angles and emit red-shifted photons into a narrow emission cone directed to the rear side of the bifacial solar modules.

All atmospheric aerosols scatter incoming solar radiation, and a few aerosol types can also absorb solar radiation. BC is the most important of the latter, but mineral dust and some OC components ...

Porous volumetric solar receivers volumetrically absorb solar radiation and achieve efficient solar-to-thermal energy conversion. Despite recent advances, however, challenges must be overcome for ...

We believe that the most promising approach to reaching this goal is to make tandem solar cells with a high band gap solar cell harvesting the high-energy photons and a lower bandgap solar cell ...

Metal oxide-based inks absorb solar radiation to produce steam from saltwater without external energy. This scalable, cost-effective method offers a low-energy alternative to traditional processes ...
