Addresses energy production and storage using thin film technology
Describes fundamentals, processing of and characterization, and specialized aspects of thin film applications
Introduces potential applications of nanostructured coatings in the energy sector including anti-reflection coating, self-cleaning coating, super-hydrophobic coating, anti-icing coating, anti-fouling coating, abradable coating, wear resistant coating, corrosion resistant coating, and thermal barrier coating
Dr Suresh Babu Krishna Moorthy has dual Master´s in Science (Chemistry) and Engineering (Materials Science). He completed his Ph.D. from Indian Institute of Technology – Madras (IITM), India in 2005 and has been working in the area of nanostructures since 2000. He was working with University of Central Florida, USA (2006-2010) before joining as Assistant Professor with Centre for Nanoscience and Technology, Pondicherry University, Puducherry. His current research focuses on thin films for solid oxide fuel cells and high temperature oxidation protection of components. In addition he is also interested on the development of multifunctional nanostructures for theranostic applications.
This book provides a comprehensive overview of thin film structures in energy applications. Each chapter contains both fundamentals principles for each thin film structure as well as the relevant energy application technologies. The authors cover thin films for a variety of energy sectors including inorganic and organic solar cells, DSSCs, solid oxide fuel cells, thermoelectrics, phosphors and cutting tools.
