Recent advancement in quantum dot-based materials for energy storage applications: a review

Abstract

The need for energy storage and conversion is growing as a result of the worsening consequences of climate change and the depletion of fossil fuels. Energy conversion and storage requirements are rising as a result of environmental problems including global warming and the depletion of fossil fuels. The key to resolving the energy crisis is anticipated to be the quick growth of sustainable energy sources including solar energy, wind energy, and hydrogen energy. In this review, we have focused on discussing various quantum dots (QDs) and polymers or nanocomposites used for SCs and have provided examples of each type's performance. Effective QD use has really led to increased performance efficiency in SCs. The use of quantum dots in energy storage devices, batteries, and various quantum dots synthesis have all been emphasized in a number of great literature articles. In this review, we have homed in on the electrode materials based on quantum dots and their composites for storage and quantum dot based flexible devices that have been published up to this point.
