Abstract
SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.
Abstract
The globe is currently dealing with an energy crisis, which is very concerning. While energy accessibility and availability have a significant impact on human well-being, the world's dependence on alternative energy sources is growing as a result of the ongoing depletion of fossil fuels. Scientists are developing other sustainable energy sources so that we can meet future energy needs and live in a cleaner environment. In the natural environment, excitation energy transfer is the principal procedure for the light-harvesting procedure. In recent years, transition metal complexes have been used in many applications, such as electroluminescent materials, photoinduced energy transfer materials, energy storage materials, and organic photovoltaic materials. Additionally, these materials provide the potential to behave as carbon sinks, hence providing a chance for more storage materials that are sustainable. For years, the electrochemical behavior of transition metal complexes has been explored in devices that store energy, such as redox flow batteries, supercapacitor electrodes, sodium-ion batteries, and lithium-ion batteries. In this chapter, various transition metals and other metal complexes that are utilized as energy materials are highlighted.
