New Materials for Energy/Information Storage and Transmission
 
 

In the recent past we have witnessed some exceptional developments in material science towards identifying new material systems for energy storage and transmission. In this colloquium we shall have a brief overview of such systems involving Superconducting, Thermoelectric, and Magneto-resisitive materials. Current challenges in solar photovoltaics will also be discussed.
