A Simple Solvent Treatment to Modulate the Thermoelectric Properties of Single‐Walled Carbon Nanotubes over a Wide Range

open access: yesAdvanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
This study explores the use of single‐walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) for thermoelectric (TE) applications to convert waste heat into electricity. By examining two SWCNT types with varying purity, structure, and thickness, it assesses how different solvents used in buckypaper fabrication affect their TE properties.

Graphene Materials for Sustainable Energy Applications: A Contemporary Perspective

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Graphene has garnered significant attention as a promising material with great potential for contributing to sustainable energy initiatives, such as RE100 (100% renewable energy initiative) and CF100 (100% carbon‐free initiative). This review aims to explore the potential of graphene for advancing renewable energy applications by highlighting

Seats at the Table, Shifts in the Actions: Board Gender Diversity and Climate Activism

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As regulatory and stakeholder pressures intensify, firms are increasingly expected to move beyond symbolic sustainability commitments towards corporate climate activism. This concept refers to the active institutionalisation of climate‐focused mechanisms such as external assurance, board oversight and climate‐linked incentives.

N-type and P-type series integrated hydrogel thermoelectric cells for low-grade heat harvesting

open access: yesNature Communications
Low-grade heat is abundant and ubiquitous, but it is generally discarded due to the lack of cost-effective recovery technologies. Ion thermoelectric cells are an affordable and straightforward approach of converting low-grade heat into usable electricity

Modification of the Kinetic Parameters of SnSe by Terbium Doping

open access: yesEast European Journal of Physics
The kinetic parameters of solid solutions TbxSn1-xSe (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.05), grown by the Bridgman method were investigated at 300 K. It was found that doping with Tb significantly affects the electrical conductivity, Hall coefficient, Seebeck coefficient ...

Synergistic Design of Composite Ionogels With Enhanced Thermoelectric Properties, Mechanical Stretchability, and Sustainable Recyclability

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
While flexible TE devices hold promise for converting low‐grade waste heat (e.g., from human skin or electronics) into usable electricity, existing materials suffer from three major limitations: 1) poor mechanical stretchability (failing to match human skin's elongation, ~20–30%), limiting wearability; 2) tradeoffs between thermoelectric efficiency (e ...
