Possessing nontoxicity, high CO thermodynamic cycles, calcium carbonate solar thermal power plants particles are usually white with little absorption of sun light, inhibiting their application in efficient volumetric solar energy conversion decreases rapidly with cycling. By incorporating Mn or Al elements, thecyclic stability is enhanced greatly.

Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) is an incredibly abundant mineral on Earth, with over 90% of it being found in the lithosphere. To address the CO2 crisis and comba...
Furthermore, its impact extends beneath the surface, where it actively participates in enhancing soil structure (Dou et al., 2023). By promoting aggregation, calcium carbonate facilitates improved water retention and drainage, creating an environment conducive to the flourishing of roots (Figure 1).
Herein calcium titanate (CT) as a lead-free perovskite material were synthesized through sintering of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) and titanium oxide (TiO2) by the sol-gel method. CT powders were characterized by SEM, XRF, FTIR and XRD then applied it onto the mesoporous heterojunction PSCs, with a device architecture ITO/TiO2/CaTiO3/C/ITO.
Understanding these diverse properties unveils calcium carbonate’s significance in addressing environmental concerns. This material emerges as a linchpin for fostering robust soil health, vibrant plant growth, and bountiful crop yields (Hamdan et al., 2017; Soon et al., 2014; Wang et al., 2015; Xie et al., 2024).
Dark CaCO 3 particles possessing full-spectrum solar absorption are designed. A theoretical model to calculate solar absorption properties of doped CaCO 3 particles is proposed. The energy storage density over 20 cycles are enhanced by about 84% (absolute value) by rational dopants.
