On a New Foundation of Equilibrium Thermodynamics
This paper presents a new foundation of equilibrium thermodynamics based on certain ideas of T. Ehrenfest. The main result is the proof for the existence of entropy as a consequence of the conservation of energy for conservative thermal ...

A Miniaturized Autonomous Thermomagnetic Generator
Micro, autonomous and high power thermomagnetic generator operating between a heat dissipator and a processor. ABSTRACT Thermomagnetic generators (TMG) are promising devices for converting low‐grade waste heat into electricity. Self‐actuation using permanent magnets is the key to autonomy.

Emergence of a Hexagonal Fe2S2 Single Layer Without a Bulk Counterpart via Phase Transformation
Upon annealing, single‐layer Mackinawite iron sulfide transforms into a previously unknown hexagonal Fe2S2${\rm Fe}_2{\rm S}_2$ phase with β$\beta$‐CuI structure. STM, LEED, and first‐principles calculations identify the structure and show that electronic correlations and magnetic order are important for its stability.

Exceptional Electro‐Optic Coefficient Unlocked via Polarization Swaying in KNbO3 Thin Films
We present the largest reported electro‐optic response in any material to date, guided by a new design principle that exploits ultralow coercive field polarization swaying enabled by low‐symmetry ferroelectric phases in monoclinic KNbO3 thin films for energy‐efficient classical and quantum photonic integrated circuits. ABSTRACT The electro‐optic effect

Fundamental functions in equilibrium thermodynamics
In the standard presentations of the principles of Gibbsian equilibrium thermodynamics one can find several gaps in the logic. For a subject that is as widely used as equilibrium thermodynamics, it is of interest to clear up such questions of ...
