Abstract
Nanomaterials with sizes ranging from 1 to 100 nm are referred to as nanotechnology. The materials used in the synthesis of nanomaterials determine their size, shape, and other characteristics. Carbon-based nanoparticles, metal-based nanomaterials, ceramic nanomaterials, lipid-based nanomaterials, semiconductor nanomaterials, and polymer nanomaterials are categories of nanomaterials based on the kind of substrate. Inert gas condensation (IGC), physical evaporation, electric arc discharge, sputtering, and laser techniques are some of the several physical processes that are frequently employed to create nanomaterials. These processes allow for precise control over the properties of the nanomaterials, which can be tailored for specific applications in fields such as medicine, electronics, and energy storage. One of today’s most critical scientific challenges is achieving highly efficient energy utilization. To meet the growing demand for next-generation energy technologies, sustained research is required to design and optimize advanced inorganic multifunctional nanomaterials. These materials have been widely investigated for applications in energy storage, conservation, transmission, and conversion, where their optical, mechanical, thermal, catalytic, and electrical properties are pivotal. At the nanoscale, triboelectric, piezoelectric, thermoelectric, electrochromic, and photovoltaic systems have significantly advanced energy technologies. Functional inorganic nanomaterials exhibit exceptional thermal and electrical conductivity, chemical stability, and high specific surface area, making them highly competitive for energy-related uses. Recent studies emphasize the development of devices that integrate these diverse functionalities to improve performance and efficiency. This review discusses recent progress and innovations in inorganic multifunctional nanomaterials, highlights their role in energy applications, and outlines key research challenges that must be addressed to enable future breakthroughs.
