未来的能源材料 由于人口的自然增长和人们生活水平的不断提高,人类需要的能源如电力等越来越多,而地球上储存的煤、石油等天然资源却日益减少。大家免不了会担心,将来地球上的煤、石油资源枯竭之后怎么办呢?不必担心,科学家正在研究替代石油和煤炭的新型能源材料。 最有希望的新型能源是受控核聚变和太阳能的开发利用。这是两种潜力巨大、取之不尽的能源。利用受控核聚变发电的初步实验已经完成了,下一步是如何实用化和降低成本。利用新材料制成的半导体太阳能电池已在许多方面显示出神通,今后的 Future Energy Materials Due to the natural population growth and continuous improvement of people’s living standards, more and more energy resources such as electricity are needed by mankind, and the natural resources such as coal and oil stored on Earth are declining. Everyone will inevitably be worried about what will happen after the earth’s coal and oil resources are depleted in the future? Do not worry, scientists are studying alternative energy sources for oil and coal. The most promising new energy sources are controlled nuclear fusion and the development and utilization of solar energy. This is two huge and inexhaustible sources of energy. Preliminary experiments using controlled nuclear fusion to generate electricity have been completed, and the next step is how to put it into practical use and reduce costs. The use of new materials made of semiconductor solar cells have shown supernatural power in the future, the future
