High-temperature and Abrasion Resistant Selective Solar Absorber under Ambient Environment
Yanpei Tian, Lijuan Qian, Xiaojie Liu +5
Selective solar absorbers (SSAs) with high performance are the key to concentrated solar power systems. Optical metamaterials are emerging as a promising strategy to enhance select…
Experimental and Theoretical Realization of Zenneck Wave-based Non-Radiative, Non-Coupled Wireless Power Transmission
Sai Kiran Oruganti, Jagannath Malik, Jongwon Lee +7
A decade ago, non-radiative wireless power transmission re-emerged as a promising alternative to deliver electrical power to devices where a physical wiring proved to be unfeasible…
Interfacial friction-induced electronic excitation mechanism for tribo-tunneling current generation
Jun Liu, Keren Jiang, Lan Nguyen +2
Direct-current (d.c.) electricity generation using moving Schottky contact is emerging as a new strategy for mechanical energy conversion. Here, we demonstrate the generation of d.…
Nanomechanical resonance captures pre-melting transition in DNA unravelling
Keren Jiang, Faheem Khan, Javix Thomas +2
A double-stranded DNA unravels thermally through intermediate denatured bubble segments. Intrinsically, fluctuations ensue at the bubble boundaries from non-equilibrium (NE) energy…
