Density Functional Study of Cubic to Rhombohedral Transition in $\alpha$-AlF$_3$
Under heating, $\alpha$-AlF$_3$ undergoes a structural phase transition from rhombohedral to cubic at temperature $T$ around 730 K. The density functional method is used to examine the $T$=0 energy surface in the structural parameter space, and finds the

Defect‐configurational origins of the asymmetric apparent electrostrain are revealed in different piezoelectric ceramics via atomic‐scale visualization of defect configurations. Migration of oxygen vacancies leads to the electrobending effect in N2‐sintered BaTiO3, while defect dipoles in Ba0.99TiO2.99 generate true asymmetric electrostrain without ...

Emerging Materials and Future Strategies for Solid Oxide Electrochemical Cells
Solid oxide electrochemical cells operate under strongly coupled electrochemical and thermodynamic conditions, where performance is constrained by interactions among crystal structure, defect chemistry, and interfacial evolution. This review, based on a structure‐defect‐property‐durability framework, reveals the roles of lattice symmetry and defect ...

This study develops a novel sparingly solvating electrolyte for potassium–sulfur batteries, utilizing tetrahydrofuran (THF) to induce an anion‐dominated solvation structure that eases polysulfide shuttling and forms an inorganic‐rich solid–electrolyte interphases (SEI). Dimethyl diselenide (DMDSe) accelerates quasi‐solid‐state transformations, reducing

Achieving Phonon‐Glass Electron‐Crystal Behavior in Fully Organic Flexible Thermoelectrics
Phonon‐glass Electron‐crystal (PGEC) behavior is demonstrated in fully organic composites consisting of conductive polymers (PEDOT:PSS) and soft polymeric fillers (PVA). The optimized PEDOT:PSS–PVA composite concurrently reveals delocalized transport and thermal conductivity close to its theoretical minimum, yielding a superior thermoelectric figure of

Trump Tariffs 2.0: Assessing the Impacts on US Distilled Spirits Imports
ABSTRACT The proposed 25% tariff on Mexico and Canada could have significant repercussions on US imports of distilled spirits. This study estimates US import demand across various spirit categories (e.g., tequila, whiskey) and assesses the potential impact of the proposed tariff.

A reliable and effective risk prediction model for mortality and morbidity in elderly patients undergoing gastroenterological surgeries was developed and validated. Geriatric‐specific risk factors, including the newly added variables in the NCD registry, along with age, were identified as significant contributors to the model. ABSTRACT Aim As the aging
