Synopsis:

Solar Selective Absorbers: Materials, Coatings, and Applications covers different harnessing technologies for solar energy, electromagnetic radiation including design principles, and different types of spectrally selective coatings.

The book emphasizes experimental methods for synthesizing these coating structures and characterization techniques to quantify the absorber characteristics, suitable for solar thermal applications. It also provides a compact review of the literature on solar (spectrally) selective absorber materials and coatings.

• Summarizes the materials, deposition and characterization techniques, and applications of solar selective absorbers
• Introduces solar selective absorber materials and photothermal technology
• Explores electrodeposition techniques and their use in the development of solar selective absorber films
• Provides understanding of solar selective absorber materials and coating techniques in photothermal technology
• Explains sputtering techniques and their use in the development of ZrO2/ZrC-ZrN/Zr tandem structure-based solar selective absorber films

The book is aimed at researchers and graduate students in solar energy, solar thermal conversion, and materials science.
