Isoelectronic Alloying in Zintl Phases Mediated the Avoided Crossing and Phonon Softening
A small amount of Hf doping endows Zr3Ni3Sb4‐Zintl with an unusually low thermal conductivity far exceeding that of similar systems. Two unique phonon mechanisms—avoided crossing and phonon softening—significantly suppress the lattice thermal conductivity. The average thermoelectric figure of merit is improved by 21%.

Dinuclear Rhodium(I)–N‐Heterocyclic Carbene Complexes as Alkyne Hydropyridonation Catalysts
Catalyst Improvement by NHC tuning: A series of new RhI–NHC dinuclear complexes has been revealed as efficient alkyne hydropyridonation catalysts. 333053IMes complex displays the highest reactivity of the series, suggesting that a moderate steric demand combined with balanced σ‐donation facilitates precatalyst activation and substrate exchange.

ABSTRACT This paper presents a novel yet practical friction‐based structural component design for low‐damage earthquake‐resistant structures. The proposed connection design is based on a conventional slotted‐bolted configuration with the novelty being the use of loose steel washer plates to establish the friction‐sliding interface.
