Synopsis

This project will explore nanostructured approaches to sustainable energy, broadly defined. The need for energy efficiency, recycling, and harvesting is ever pressing in our modern society. Nano control of radiation provides unique opportunities for sustainable energy, with a wide range of applications such as in building cooling, engine heat reusing, and human-body cooling. This project expands from our series of works in nanostructured textiles, for example, in Science 353, 1019 (2016), Nature Sustainability 1, 105-112 (2018), Adv. Mater. 30, 1802152 (2018), ACS Photonics 7, 1729 (2020).
