UV-vis light-driven organic solid-liquid phase change materials exhibited excellent performances of UV-vis light-harvesting, UV-vis light-thermal conversion and thermal energy storage, which is promoted by UV absorbing dye as an effective ‘‘photon capture and molecular heater’’ for direct and efficient use of solar radiation.
