The present conference on optical materials technology for energy efficiency and solar energy conversion encompasses chromogenics, solar and architectural materials, photovoltaic and photoelectrochemical materials, and applications for the modification, concentration, and conversion of radiant energy including its use as a fuel and as a detoxifying agent for wastes. Specific issues addressed include transparent storage layers for H(+) and Li(+) ions prepared by the sol-gel technique, electrochromism in cobalt oxyhydroxide thin films, the optical performance of angle-dependent light-control glass, and UV reflector materials for solar detoxification of hazardous wastes. Also addressed are the luminescence and chemical potential of solar cells, the design and fabrication of holographic dispersive solar concentrator for terrestrial applications, and the photoelectrochemical characteristics of slurry-coated Cd-Se-Te films.
