">72°C heated water passed through hollow copper tubes coated with marigold-like nanostructured hardcarbon florets (readily available and scalable) converts to water vapor with 186% efficiency... converting 87% infalling light into usable thermal energy... florets absorb >97% UV, visible and IR... increases temperature to 60°C... solar thermal converters used in water heaters... chemical vapor deposition is used to create the nanoparticles... coating also works on paper, elastomers, metal and terracotta"
