Enhancing Thermoelectric Performance of Cd₃P₂ by Alloying with Dirac Material Cd₃As₂

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
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

Advancing Carriers Mobility in MnSb2Te4 Thermoelectrics via Tailored Textures and Vacancy Modification

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
A pioneering post‐treatment is offered to boost the mobility in MnSb2Te4‐based specimen for excellent thermoelectric performance at medium temperature area. As a result, the texture tailoring and vacancy modifying MnSb₂Te₄ specimen reaches a record‐high maximum ZT value of 1.3 at 773 K and an impressive average ZT of 0.7 between 323 and 773 K ...

Suppressed Thermal Conductivity in van der Waals Semiconductor SnS2 by Stacking Engineering

Advanced Energy and Sustainability Research, EarlyView.
Achieving low thermal conductivity is crucial for materials used for thermoelectric energy conversion. It is demonstrated that the lattice thermal conductivity of van der Waals semiconductor SnS2 can be significantly reduced by introducing 2H and 4H structures stacked along the c‐axis.

Decomposition of Lorenz Trajectories Based on Space Curve Tangent Vector

Atmosphere
This article explores the evolution of Lorenz trajectories within attractors. Specifically, based on the characteristics of the tangents to trajectories, we derive quantitative standards for determining the spatial position of trajectory lines.

Comparing exergy and heat pump work in distillation systems

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This study compares the exergy supplied to a distillation column with the actual energy consumption of a heat pump‐assisted distillation (HPAD) system. It evaluates the reliability of exergy as a proxy for heat pump work demand in such systems.

Parametric Lorenz Curves and the Modality of the Income Density Function [PDF]

, 2012
Similar looking Lorenz Curves can imply very different income density functions and potentially lead to wrong policy implications regarding inequality. This paper derives a relation between a Lorenz Curve and the modality of its underlying income density:

Solid‐state NMR Reveals Reorganization of the Aspergillus fumigatus Cell Wall Due to a Host‐Defence Peptide

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Accepted Article.
The limited availability of antifungal drug treatments and the rising issue of drug resistance highlight the urgent need for new antifungal drugs to combat drug‐resistant Aspergillus fumigatus. The host‐defence peptide cathelicidin‐2 has demonstrated a significant inhibitory effect on azole‐resistant Aspergillus fumigatus but its mechanism of action ...
