Abstract:Solar
energy and ambient heat are two inexhaustible energy sources for addressing the
global challenge of energy and sustainability. Solar thermal battery based on molecular
switches that can store solar energy and release it as heat has recently attracted
great interest, but its development is severely limited by both low energy
density and short storage stability. On the other hand, the efficient recovery
and upgrading of low-grade heat, especially that of the ambient heat, has been
a great challenge. Here w… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
