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 ...

Synergistic Modulation of Conductivity and Oxidation Stability in SiHfBCN Ceramics via UV‐Assisted Structural Evolution

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A quinary UV‐curable SiHfBCN ceramic photoresist with high ceramic yield enhanced is developed through sequential molecular design for high‐temperature sensing coatings. The elevated interconnected conductive network induced by chemically bonded carboxylated MWCNTs enables the pyrolyzed ceramics' enhanced conductivity and excellent oxidation stability.

Nanostructured Optical Superabsorbers from Carbon Nanotube Forest for Heat Management Using Environmental Blackbody Radiation from the Visible to Mid‐Infrared

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Our computational model of the optical absorption from multiwalled carbon nanotubes suggests the optical absorption depends strongly on the in‐plane electrical conductivity, and weakly on the through‐plane conductivity. Such strong absorption enables solar‐to‐thermal conversion for heat scavenging in cold climates and radiative cooling in hot climates,
