Turning windows into energy generators

novel transparent metal oxide photovoltaic cells could turn windows into energy generators

Bismuth vanadate electrodes that contain more bismuth on their surface generate higher amounts of electrical current from sunlight for water splitting.

Researchers have developed a 'windowpane' with a conjugated polymer that can direct light that falls on it to solar cells at the edges of the pane.

Molecular component improves on perovskites

New class of optical coating that transmit and reflects the same color simultaneously

Researchers have enhanced the electronic properties of perovskite materials by incorporating specially designed organic molecules.

By combining polymers and nanoparticles, researchers have created an injectable gel that doesn't melt when exposed to the temperature inside the body.

Researchers have found a way to get polymer gels to snap and reset themselves, relying solely on energy flow from their environment.

Professor Hongjin Fan announced as new Editor-in-Chief of Materials Today Energy.

Researchers used X-ray tomography to discover that voids can form at the interface between electrodes and the solid electrolyte in solid-state batteries.

Using a specially textured, gas-attracting material, researchers have greatly boosted the performance of catalytical systems for capturing carbon dioxide.
