On the Ordering Mechanism of Cu+ in 2D van der Waals Multiferroic CuCrP2S6
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Temperature‐dependent X‐ray single‐crystal diffuse scattering measurements of CuCrP2S6 in the (H, K, 0) plane reveal the gradual emergence and strengthening of short‐range order upon cooling from 230 to 170 K. At intermediate temperatures, diffuse features become pronounced and eventually lock into sharp incommensurate satellite reflections, indicating

Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Most studies on how rising temperatures will impact terrestrial ectotherms have focused on single populations or multiple sympatric species. Addressing the thermal and energetic implications of climatic variation on multiple allopatric populations of a ...

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.A synergistic dual‐modulation strategy is employed in Yb‐filled skutterudites through concurrent indium filling and tellurium doping to optimize electronic band structure and phonon scattering. Cooperative band convergence and nanoprecipitate‐induced lattice distortions yield a high zT of 1.72 and enable an ultra‐efficient thermoelectric device with 8 ...

Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.Abstract Premise As the sister clade to angiosperms, extant gymnosperms are crucial for reconstructing ancestral gene regulatory networks in seed plants. This highlights the need for model systems representing each of their distinct lineages. However, tools to quickly and effectively investigate gene function in gymnosperms are still limited due to the

Diversity, 2022 The mitigation of human-rattlesnake conflicts often involves euthanizing or translocating the offending rattlesnake. Although translocation is generally considered more humane, especially by the general public, it may negatively impact the translocated ...

Comparative sex chromosome genomics in snakes: differentiation, evolutionary strata, and lack of global dosage compensation. [PDF]
PLoS Biology, 2013 Snakes exhibit genetic sex determination, with female heterogametic sex chromosomes (ZZ males, ZW females). Extensive cytogenetic work has suggested that the level of sex chromosome heteromorphism varies among species, with Boidae having entirely ...

Isoelectronic Alloying in Zintl Phases Mediated the Avoided Crossing and Phonon Softening
ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.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%.
