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

Corporate 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.

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

ENERGY &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 ...

Multipocket synergy towards high thermoelectric performance in topological semimetal TaAs2

Nature Communications
Charge-carrier compensation in topological semimetals amplifies the Nernst signal and simultaneously degrades the Seebeck coefficient. In this study, we report the simultaneous achievement of both a large Nernst signal and an unsaturating magneto-Seebeck
