Oxide Interface of Gallium‐Based Liquid Metals: Beneficial Bridge or Hidden Risk?

open access: yesChemistryEurope, EarlyView.
Discussion on oxide interfaces in gallium‐based liquid metals have concentrated on their properties, behaviors, and related applications. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying effects, as well as the differences between the presence and absence of the oxide layer, have been less thoroughly discussed.

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

Isoelectronic Alloying in Zintl Phases Mediated the Avoided Crossing and Phonon Softening

open access: yesENERGY &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%.

Self‐Maintained Thermal Charging Cells for the Efficient Harvesting of Waste Heat at Elevated Temperatures

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Thermal charging cells (TCS) face two main challenges that limit their practical applications: 1) Still lacking the systems suitable for operation under higher temperature environments, and 2) there are limitations in the self‐sustaining performance of continuous discharge under temperature differences, which holds critical significance for the real ...

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 ...
