Abstract To remedy the drawbacks of weak solar‐thermal conversion capability, low thermal conductivity, and poor structural stability phase change materials, pyramidal graphitized chitosan/graphene aerogels (G‐CGAs) with numerous radially oriented layers are constructed, in which long‐range radial alignment graphene sheets is achieved by a novel directional‐freezing strategy. A G‐CGA/polyethylene glycol composite exhibits conductivity 2.90 W m −1 K latent heat 178.8 J g , achieves superior...
Hierarchical structure and surface topography play pivotal roles in developing high-performance solar-driven evaporators for clean water production; however, there exists a notable gap research addressing simultaneous modulation of internal microstructure hydrogels to enhance both solar steam generation performance desalination efficiency. Herein, anisotropic poly(vinyl alcohol)/MXene composite efficient evaporation wastewater purification are fabricated using template-assisted directional...

Abstract Solar‐driven steam generation has emerged as a sustainable technology for addressing freshwater scarcity. However, significant challenges still exist in developing high‐performance, multifunctional evaporators that are adept at both efficiently evaporating water and degrading pollutants, primarily because of the trade‐offs among functional designs.

Bi2Te3-based thermoelectric materials with large figure of merit, ZT, at elevated temperatures are advantageous in power generation by using the low-grade waste heat. Here, we show that incorporation small proportion (0.3 vol. %) nanophase Cu2Se into BiSbTe matrix causes an enhanced high-temperature thermopower due to energy filtering carriers and inhibition minority transport besides phonon blocking from scattering interfaces, which concurrently result ∼20% increase factor ∼60% reduction...
Abstract Tungsten (W) is one of the most promising plasma-facing materials for future fusion devices. Although its melting point highest among all metals, it still has great risk under extremely high plasma heat fluxes, which a big concern ITER and reactors. Actively cooled W components (PFCs) with both monoblocks flat-type structure have been successfully installed in lower divertor EAST tokamak since 2021, provide good opportunity direct comparison damage mechanism two types PFCs. Various...
Abstract Though solar energy‐driven steam generation is promising for cleaning water, the water evaporation efficiency has to be enhanced further. Herein, 3D reduced graphene oxide (RGO) decorated cellulose acetate filter (RGF) evaporators are fabricated by immersing porous filters (CFs) in a suspension of oxide, followed drying and chemical reduction efficient generation. The RGO sheets can absorb light convert energy thermal energy, while hydrophilic CFs with lots vertical channels...
