Coupled Vacancy and Phonon‐Scattering Engineering Drive Defect Evolution Toward Multifunctional High‐Performance Bi2Te3 Thermoelectrics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ZnSb reduces carrier concentration and suppresses Te volatilization, while Se substitution within QLs softens phonons and enhances anharmonicity. Swapped bilayers near twin boundaries strengthen phonon scattering and interlayer bonding. As a result, the optimal sample achieves an ultra‐high zT ∼1.51, cooling temperature difference of ∼70 K, power ...

Little String Theory in a Double Scaling Limit [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
A double scaling limit can be defined in string theory on a Calabi-Yau (CY) manifold by approaching a point in moduli space where the CY space develops an isolated singularity and at the same time taking the string coupling to zero, while keeping a ...

Rare‐Earth Yttrium Doping Advances High‐Performance AgSbTe2 Thermoelectrics

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Y‐doped AgSbTe2 achieves band and microstructure co‐optimization, with coherent Y‐Ag2Te interfaces enhancing phonon scattering and reducing lattice thermal conductivity to 0.26 W m−1 K−1. Combined with valence‐band broadening and increased carrier concentration, this yields ZT ≈ 2 at 623 K, average ZT = 1.5, and 7.3 % conversion efficiency of a single ...

Emerging Materials and Future Strategies for Solid Oxide Electrochemical Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Solid oxide electrochemical cells operate under strongly coupled electrochemical and thermodynamic conditions, where performance is constrained by interactions among crystal structure, defect chemistry, and interfacial evolution. This review, based on a structure‐defect‐property‐durability framework, reveals the roles of lattice symmetry and defect ...

A Civic Republican Analysis of Mental Capacity Law [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
This article draws upon the civic republican tradition to offer new conceptual resources for the normative assessment of mental capacity law. The republican conception of liberty as non-domination is used to identify ways in which such laws generate ...

Fusing AVHRR LST With Geostationary SEVIRI LST to Create a Long-Term Daily Maximum LST Time Series Over Europe

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
Longtime series of satellite-derived land surface temperature (LST) data are an indispensable resource to study climate and global change. The advanced very high-resolution radiometer (AVHRR) provides thermal infrared measurements, which can be translated into LST, for 40 years with high temporal resolution.

Achieving Phonon‐Glass Electron‐Crystal Behavior in Fully Organic Flexible Thermoelectrics

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Phonon‐glass Electron‐crystal (PGEC) behavior is demonstrated in fully organic composites consisting of conductive polymers (PEDOT:PSS) and soft polymeric fillers (PVA). The optimized PEDOT:PSS–PVA composite concurrently reveals delocalized transport and thermal conductivity close to its theoretical minimum, yielding a superior thermoelectric figure of

Inhomogeneous substructures hidden in random networks

open access: yes, 2006
We study the structure of the load-based spanning tree (LST) that carries the maximum weight of the Erdos-Renyi (ER) random network. The weight of an edge is given by the edge-betweenness centrality, the effective number of shortest paths through the ...

A Seasonal Investigation on Land Surface Temperature and Spectral Indices in Imphal City, India

open access: yesJournal of Landscape Ecology, 2022
The study focused on investigating the seasonal and spatiotemporal relationship between the relationships of LST with four spectral indices (MNDWI, NDBaI, NDBI, and NDVI) in and around Manipur City of India using eight cloud-free Landsat data from the ...
