520 Global demand for low cost, efficient and sustainable
energy production is ever increasing. Driven by recent
discoveries and innovation in the science and technology
of materials, applications based on functional materials
are becoming increasingly important. Functional materials
for sustainable energy applications provides an essential
guide to the development and application of these
materials in sustainable energy production. Part one
reviews functional materials for solar power, including
silicon-based, thin-film, and dye sensitized photovoltaic
solar cells, thermophotovoltaic device modelling and
photoelectrochemical cells. Part two focuses on functional
materials for hydrogen production and storage. Functional
materials for fuel cells are then explored in part three
where developments in membranes, catalysts and membrane
electrode assemblies for polymer electrolyte and direct
methanol fuel cells are discussed, alongside electrolytes
and ion conductors, novel cathodes, anodes, thin films and
proton conductors for solid oxide fuel cells. Part four
considers functional materials for demand reduction and
energy storage, before the book concludes in part five
with an investigation into computer simulation studies of
functional materials. With its distinguished editors and
international team of expert contributors, Functional
materials for sustainable energy applications is an
indispensable tool for anyone involved in the research,
development, manufacture and application of materials for
sustainable energy production, including materials
engineers, scientists and academics in the rapidly
developing, interdisciplinary field of sustainable energy.
An essential guide to the development and application of
functional materials in sustainable energy
productionReviews functional materials for solar
powerFocuses on functional materials for hydrogen
production and storage, fuel cells, demand reduction and
energy storage.
