title: Multifunctional Porous Graphene for High-Efficiency Steam Generation by Heat Localization.
abstract: Multifunctional nanoporous graphene is realized as a heat generator to convert solar illumination into high-energy steam. The novel 3D nanoporous graphene demonstrates a highly energy-effective steam generation with an energy conversation of 80%.
