Creating an efficient, cost-effective, and flexible solar energy harvesting design based on self-assembled nanoparticles. Solar-thermal technology is a promising environmentally friendly energy harvesting method with a potential role to play in solving the fossil fuel energy crisis. The techno
designed a solar harvester with enhanced energy conversion capabilities.
Thermal energy harvested by the device can be transformed into electricity using thermoelectric materials. To achieve these goals, a harvester is usually a system with a periodic nanophotonic structure. But the flexibility and scalability of these modules can be limited due to the rigidity of the pattern and high fabrication costs.
