All forms of energy follow the law of conservation of energy, by which they can be neither
created nor destroyed. Light-to-heat conversion as a traditional yet constantly evolving …

Metamaterial absorbers have been widely studied and continuously concerned owing to
their excellent resonance features of ultra‐thin thickness, light‐weight, and high absorbance …

In this work, we design a solar absorber and thermal emitter with ultra-broadband perfect
absorption and high thermal radiation efficiency. The solar absorber has a high absorption …

Solar‐powered vapor evaporation (SVG), based on the liquid‐gas phase conversion
concept using solar energy, has been given close attention as a promising technology to …

Solar‐driven water evaporation technology holds great potential for mitigating the global
water scarcity due to its high energy conversion efficiency. Lowering the vaporization …

Alternative water resources (seawater, brackish water, atmospheric water, sewage, etc.) can
be converted into clean freshwater via high-efficiency, energy-saving, and cost-effective …

All-day passive radiative cooling has recently attracted tremendous interest by reflecting
sunlight and radiating heat to the ultracold outer space. While some progress has been …

Colloidal self-assembly refers to a solution-processed assembly of nanometer-/micrometer-
sized, well-dispersed particles into secondary structures, whose collective properties are …

Energy and water are of fundamental importance for our modern society, and advanced
technologies on sustainable energy storage and conversion as well as water resource …

Interfacial solar steam generation offers a promising and cost‐effective way for saline water
desalination. However, salt accumulation and deposition on photothermal materials during …
