“…The solar-thermal effect produced by solar excitation exists in diverse kinds of nanostructured materials, such as carbon materials, metallic materials, semiconductors, and some conjugated polymers, etc. − Upon solar irradiation, these solar-thermal materials convert solar energy into thermal energy through different solar-thermal conversion mechanisms, which are related to their inherent electronic or bandgap structures. Generally, solar-thermal conversion mechanisms can be categorized into three categories, namely conjugate effect and hyperconjugate effect, surface plasmon resonance (SPR) effect, and localized SPR (LSPR) effect, and nonradiative relaxation effect. − …”

Functional phase change materials (PCMs) capable of reversibly storing and releasing tremendous thermal energy during the isothermal phase change process have recently received tremendous attention in interdisciplinary applications. The smart integration of PCMs with functional supporting materials enables multiple cutting-edge interdisciplinary applications, including optical, electrical, magnetic, acoustic, medical, mechanical, and catalytic disciplines etc. Herein, we systematically discuss thermal storage mechanism, thermal transfer mechanism, and energy conversion mechanism, and summarize the state-of-the-art advances in interdisciplinary applications of PCMs. In particular, the applications of PCMs in acoustic, mechanical, and catalytic disciplines are still in their infancy. Simultaneously, in-depth insights into the correlations between microscopic structures and thermophysical properties of composite PCMs are revealed. Finally, current challenges and future prospects are also highlighted according to the up-to-date interdisciplinary applications of PCMs. This review aims to arouse broad research interest in the interdisciplinary community and provide constructive references for exploring next generation advanced multifunctional PCMs for interdisciplinary applications, thereby facilitating their major breakthroughs in both fundamental researches and commercial applications.

A phase change material is an ideal energy storage material with huge latent heat and nearly constant phase change temperature, but there are serious problems in application such as leakage and low thermal conductivity. Porous ceramic matrixes are widely used in phase change material packaging because of their controllable porosity, large specific surface area, and high thermal conductivity. This paper introduces the preparation of porous ceramics and encapsulation of form‐stable phase change materials (FSPCMs) based on porous ceramics, thermal conductivity enhancement and other aspects of the comb, in addition, the applications of porous ceramic‐based FSPCMs in industrial waste heat recovery, temperature regulation of buildings, solar energy collection and storage, and battery thermal management system are summarized, in order to provide reference for the performance optimization of porous ceramic‐based FSPCMs and explore new preparation methods, finally, the challenges and future development of the FSPCMS are summarized. Porous ceramic‐based FSPCMs are expected to make major breakthroughs in the future to solve the increasingly serious energy problems.

“…TiO 2 has been diversely employed in solar devices in the form of cathodes, light scatterers, electron collectors, high wavelength transmitters, etc. These applications are possible due to its tunable conductivity, resistance to weathering, self-cleaning ability, excellent transmittance of solar radiation, and ease of fabrication [ 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 , 37 , 38 , 39 , 40 , 41 , 42 , 43 , 44 , 45 , 46 , 47 ]. TiO 2 has been utilized in the form of a mesoporous nanostructure to increase scattering, which increases the interaction of light with absorbing materials and eventually improves the absorption efficiency [ 31 ].…”

Nanocomposite multi-layer TiO2/V2O5/TiO2 thin films were prepared via electron-beam evaporation using high-purity targets (TiO2 and V2O5 purity > 99.9%) at substrate temperatures of 270 °C (TiO2) and 25 °C (V2O5) under a partial pressure of oxygen of 2 × 10−4 mbar to maintain the stoichiometry. Rutherford backscattering spectrometry was used to confirm the layer structure and the optimal stoichiometry of the thin films, with a particle size of 20 to 40 nm. The thin films showed an optical transmittance of ~78% in the visible region and a reflectance of ~90% in the infrared. A decrease in transmittance was observed due to the greater cumulative thickness of the three layers and multiple reflections at the interface of the layers. The optical bandgap of the TiO2 mono-layer was ~3.49 eV, whereas that of the multi-layer TiO2/V2O5/TiO2 reached ~3.51 eV. The increase in the optical bandgap was due to the inter-diffusion of the layers at an elevated substrate temperature during the deposition. The intrinsic, structural, and morphological features of the TiO2/V2O5/TiO2 thin films suggest their efficient use as a solar water heater system.
