Selective solar absorber coatings of carbon embedded in ZnO and NiO matrices on aluminium substrates have been fabricated by a sol–gel technique. Spectrophotometry was used to determine the solar absorptance and the thermal emittance of the composi

Carbon-silica composite films have been fabricated using sol-gel synthesis of silica-carbon precursor composites, followed by carbonization in an inert atmosphere. Four categories of samples were studied. These were the tetraethyl orthosilicate-only

Cermet thin films of Cu-MgF2 were deposited onto glass substrates using a conventional resistive heating co-evaporation technique. Films of starting compositions 40, 60 and 80 vol % Cu and average thicknesses 60, 145 and 285 nm were deposited at elev

It is possible to design an optical material, through control of the substrate and coatings, to absorb a large fraction of the solar spectrum and to emit very little radiation energy in the near and far infra-red wavelength range. This requires a coa

Cermet composite thin film resistors of Cu and MgF2 were prepared by conventional vacuum evaporation technique at a pressure of 5 × 10−5 torr and at 302 ± 2 K. The composition by volume was varied from 10 vol% Cu and 90 vol% MgF2 to 100% Cu for t

Selective solar absorber coatings of carbon dispersed in SiO2, ZnO and NiO matrices on aluminium substrates have been fabricated by a sol-gel technique. Spectrophotometry was used to measure the near-normal reflectance of the composite coatings. Calc

We present a cheaper and environmentally friendly method to fabricate efficient spectrally selective solar absorber materials. The sol-gel technique was used to fabricate carbon-silica (C-SiO2) and carbon-nickel oxide (C-NiO) composite films on alumi

Investigations have been carried out on the electrical properties of nickel-based films prepared from air-fireable pastes on alumina substrates. In particular, magnetoresistive effects have been studied as a function of temperature, strength and dire
