This Collection supports and amplifies research related to SDG 9 and SDG 12. 3D printing, or additive manufacturing, has emerged as a technology for advancing possibilities in devices for energy ...

In a conventional solar cell, the energy of an absorbed photon in excess of the band gap is rapidly lost as heat, and this is one of the main reasons that the theoretical efficiency is limited to ~33% ...

Plasmonics is the study of the interaction between electromagnetic waves and free electrons in a metal. When light strikes a metal nanostructure, it can excite collective oscillations of the free ...

Researchers led by Rice University’s Guido Pagano used a specialized quantum device to simulate a vibrating molecule and ...

RIKEN physicists have found a magnetic material that converts heat into electricity with high efficiency, making it promising for use in energy-harvesting devices. The work is published in the journal ...

Tsinghua University has launched the first issue of Energy Materials and Devices, a quarterly publication published by Tsinghua University Press. The journal aims to be an international, single-blind, ...
