An Overlooked Transport Mechanism in Organic Mixed Conductors

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Electrical transport in organic mixed ionic‐electronic conductors is commonly described by ionic and electronic conduction. Here, eumelanin reveals that polarization‐assisted displacement currents constitute an additional transport component that coexists with conductive transport.

A Review of Defrosting Technologies for Air Source Heat Pumps

Frontiers in Science and Engineering
Air source heat pumps (ASHPs) are widely used in building energy efficiency due to their high performance and environmental benefits. However, in cold climates, frosting of ASHP evaporators during winter operation reduces heating efficiency, affects user comfort, and may even cause system shutdowns or permanent damage.
