Indium‐Doping Advances High‐Performance Flexible Ag2Se Thin Films
A “precursor doping strategy” is employed to realize In‐doping at Ag sites in Ag2Se thin films, boosting electrical conductivity while maintaining a high Seebeck coefficient, therefore achieving a high‐power factor of ≈26.3 µW cm−1 K−2 and ZT of ≈1.

Realizing High Performance in Flexible Mg3Sb2−xBix Thin‐Film Thermoelectrics
A p‐type Mg3Sb2−xBix thin film is prepared using a magnetron sputtering method combined with ex situ annealing. The performance and microstructural changes of the material are analyzed under varying Bi compositions. It is found that when x = 0.9, the Mg3Sb1.1Bi0.9 thin film achieved a power factor of 3.771 µW cm−1 K−2 and a ZT value of 0.242 at 500 K ...

Recent advances and challenges in temperature monitoring and control in microfluidic devices
Abstract Temperature is a critical—yet sometimes overlooked—parameter in microfluidics. Microfluidic devices can experience heating inside their channels during operation due to underlying physicochemical phenomena occurring therein. Such heating, whether required or not, must be monitored to ensure adequate device operation.

Carleman Estimates and null controllability of coupled degenerate systems [PDF]
In this paper, we study the null controllability of weakly degenerate coupled parabolic systems with two different diffusion coefficients and one control force. To obtain this aim, we develop first new global Carleman estimates for degenerate parabolic equations with weight functions different from the ones in the previous works.

Enhancing Thermoelectric Performance of Cd₃P₂ by Alloying with Dirac Material Cd₃As₂
This study demonstrates that alloying Cd₃P₂ with Dirac material Cd₃As₂ significantly enhances its thermoelectric performance. Key improvements include increased carrier mobility, reduced effective mass, and lower deformation potential, resulting in a doubled power factor and improved thermoelectric efficiency, which renders this material applicable for

Continuity estimates for degenerate parabolic double-phase equations via nonlinear potentials [PDF]
In this article, we study regularity properties for degenerate parabolic double-phase equations. We establish continuity estimates for bounded weak solutions in terms of elliptic Riesz potentials on the right-hand side of the equation.
