Solar-powered desalination is a sustainable approach to generate clean water for our society. Here, authors report lightweight, flexible, and fluidic-diode membrane-based evaporators to allow directional water transport and optimized heat localization. This Janus evaporator design enables high performance interfacial solar water evaporation, as well as hydrovoltaic applications.
