Photothermal trap utilizing solar illumination for ice mitigation
Ice buildup is an operational and safety hazard in wind turbines, power lines, and airplanes. Traditional deicing methods, including mechanical and chemical means, are energy-intensive or environmentally unfriendly. Super-hydrophobic anti-icing surfaces, while promising, can become ineffective due t...
