Energy conversion and storage provide the application focus for this session at the World Nanotechnology Conference. Topics span battery nanomaterials, supercapacitors, solar cells, photovoltaics, hydrogen technologies, fuel cells, thermoelectric materials and nanogenerators. Discussions will address material architecture, charge transport, interfaces, electrochemical behavior and device integration, alongside performance, durability and practical operating conditions. The session connects fundamental nanoscale investigations with the development and evaluation of energy systems, including opportunities to examine resource use, manufacturing compatibility and long-term reliability.
Abstract Scope and Participation
Submissions are welcome on materials development, experimental testing, computational studies, device prototypes and comparisons of energy technologies. Work on energy harvesting, hybrid systems, degradation mechanisms and application-oriented scale-up is also encouraged. Materials scientists, electrochemists, physicists, energy engineers, industrial researchers and students are invited to contribute and exchange perspectives across the materials-to-device development process.
