Molecularly Engineered Azobenzene Derivatives for High Energy Density Solid-State Solar Thermal Fuels

Solar thermal fuels (STFs) harvest and store solar energy in a closed cycle system through conformational change of molecules and can release the energy in the form of heat on demand. With the aim of developing tunable and optimized STFs for solid-state applications, we designed three azobenzene der...
