Systematic investigating on the broadband solar absorption and photo-thermal conversion performance of TiN@rGO plasmonic nanofluids

Strong solar capture and high heat transfer are extremely vital for designing solar-to-heat absorber to improve photo-thermal conversion efficiency in direct absorption solar collectors (DASCs). In this paper, the plasmonic nanofluids containing reduced graphene oxides (rGO) decorated with titanium nitride (TiN) nanoparticles were prepared. Their superior solar-thermal conversion efficiency and heat transfer property was based on the synergy...
