Abstract:

The invention relates to a light-absorbing element coated on at least a region of its surface with a film of at least one light-absorbing material, the light-absorbing material being assocd. with at least one binder material, the film being 1 - 20 μm thick and having light absorption of at least 90%. The invention also relates to a device comprising a light-absorbing element. The invention also claims a thermosolar device comprising a light-absorbing element. The invention also relates to a method of fabricating a light-absorbing film on a surface region of a substrate, the method comprising: (a) forming on a surface region at least one absorbing layer comprising: (I) a light-absorbing material; and (II) a polymerizable binder resin; (b) heating the at least one absorbing layer to induce polymn. of the binder resin; and (c) optionally forming at least one IR radiation reflecting layer on the polymd. binder.
