Halide Perovskite: A Rich Source of Thermal Insulator

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Halide perovskites exhibit ultralow thermal conductivity driven by intrinsic lattice softness and strong anharmonicity, falling below conventional defect‐engineering limits. Weak metavalent bonding, A‐site rattling, and dynamic octahedral tilting drive phonon scattering to the Ioffe–Regel limit, where wave‐like tunneling replaces particle‐like ...

Wave-Based Room Acoustics Modelling: Recent Progress and Future Outlooks [PDF]

, 2018
Room acoustics simulations have conventionally relied on the high-frequency simplifications of geometrical and statistical acoustics. In such models, sound is assumed to propagate along rays and wave diffraction effects largely neglected.

Enhancing Near‐Room‐Temperature Thermoelectric Performance of n‐Type Mg3(Sb, Bi)2‐Based Materials via ZrB2 Heterointerface Engineering

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A conductive ZrB2 ceramic composite strategy was developed for Mg3(Sb, Bi)2 thermoelectrics to regulate carrier transport and phonon scattering through heterointerface engineering. The 1.0 wt.% ZrB2 composite achieved enhanced room‐temperature performance, with a power factor of 28.51 µW cm−1 K−2 and a peak ZT of 1.22 at 573 K.

Electronic Chip‐Mimetic Medical Implants for Controllable Sonothermal Treatments

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Inspired by the thermal effect of working electronic chips, which consist of various heterostructures, an sonothermal‐responsive platform has been developed through constructing metal‐semiconductor interface on implants. Biofilm infection and deep vein thrombosis can be successfully treated by controllable ultrasound treatments.

Defect‐Engineered BiO2‐X Nanosheets Mediate Sono‐Thermomechanical ECM Remodeling for Hepatocellular Carcinoma Immunotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Herein, an ultrasound‐responsive BiO2‐X/siFn1 nanoplatform is developed to overcome anti‐PD‐1 resistance in hepatocellular carcinoma. Upon ultrasound irradiation, the platform downregulates fibronectin expression, while its sonothermal effect softens the dense extracellular matrix and activates antitumor immunity in the tumor microenvironment, thereby ...
