Self-cleaning and self-cooling paper
Yanpei Tian, Hong Shao, Xiaojie Liu +4
The technique of passive daytime radiative cooling (PDRC) is used to cool an object down by simultaneously reflecting sunlight and thermally radiating heat to the cold outer space…
Blackbody-cavity Ideal Solar Absorbers
Yanpei Tian, Xiaojie Liu, Alok Ghanekar +2
Spectrally selective solar absorbers (SSAs), harvesting sunlight into heat, are the key to the concentrated solar thermal systems. Current SSAs' designs using photonic crystals, me…
Harvesting Energy from Sun, Outer Space, and Soil
Yanpei Tian, Xiaojie Liu, Fangqi Chen +1
While solar power systems have offered a wide variety of electricity generation approaches including photovoltaics, solar thermal power systems, and solar thermoelectric generators…
Non-contact Thermal Transistor Effects Modulated by Nanoscale Mechanical Deformation
Fangqi Chen, Xiaojie Liu, Yanpei Tian +2
Thermal management has become a promising field in recent years due to the limitation of energy resources and the global warming. An important topic in improving the efficiency of…
Efficient Solar-driven Steam Generation Enabled by An Ultra-black Paint
Xiaojie Liu, Yanpei Tian, Fangqi Chen +5
Solar-driven interfacial steam generation for desalination has attracted broad attention. However, a significant challenge still remains for achieving a higher evaporation rate and…
Dynamic Tuning of Near-field Radiative Thermal Rectification
Fangqi Chen, Xiaojie Liu, Yanpei Tian +1
Taking advantage of phase-transition and reconfigurable metamaterials, dynamic control of nanoscale thermal modulation can be achieved through the near-field radiative thermal rect…
