Mechanically Mutable Matrices: A Hierarchical Investigation of Decellularized Sea Cucumber Collagen as an Adaptable Scaffold Material

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Sea cucumber mutable collagenous tissue (MCT) is a remarkable collagen‐based material which can rapidly undergo large changes in stiffness through transiently bound effector proteins. Here, we investigate the hierarchical structure and mechanical response of MCT from Cucumaria frondosa across length scales with a wide range of methods, also exploring ...

High‐Performance n‐Type Organic Thermoelectrics Enabled by Control Over Microstructure, Orientation and Contact Plane in Naphthalenediimide‐Bithiazole‐Copolymer Films

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Effective control over the crystalline contact plane and microstructure of a naphthalenediimide‐bithiazole copolymer enables high‐performance n‐type thermoelectrics. While rubbing alignment induces a detrimental edge‐on orientation, subsequent solvent vapor‐induced re‐orientation facilitates a favorable mixed face‐on/edge‐on morphology.

Encapsulated Thermoelectric Modules and Compliant Pads for Advanced Thermoelectric Systems [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Electronic Materials, 2010
The described encapsulated thermoelectric (TE) module consists of a vacuum-tight stainless-steel container with dimensions of 55 mm × 50 mm × 11 mm in which a SiGe or BiTe TE module is placed. This construction enables maximum performance and durability because: (1) the thermal expansion mismatch between the hot and cold sides of the container can be ...

Increasing Thermoelectric Efficiency: A Dynamical Systems Approach [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2008
Inspired by the kinetic theory of ergodic gases and chaotic billiards, we propose a simple microscopic mechanism for the increase of thermoelectric efficiency. We consider the cross transport of particles and energy in open classical ergodic billiards.
