Pushing Radiative Cooling Technology to Real Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Radiative cooling controls surface optical properties for solar and thermal radiation, offering solutions for global warming and energy savings. Despite significant advances, key challenges remain: optimizing optical efficiency, maintaining aesthetics, preventing overcooling, enhancing durability, and enabling scalable production.

Green thermoelectrics: Observation and analysis of plant thermoelectric response [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2015
Plants are sensitive to thermal and electrical effects; yet the coupling of both, known as thermoelectricity, and its quantitative measurement in vegetal systems never were reported. We recorded the thermoelectric response of bean sprouts under various thermal conditions and stress.

Thermodynamics of Thermoelectricity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Discovered at the beginning of the nineteen century, the thermoelectric effects nicely reflect the richness of the out of equilibrium thermodynamics of coupled phenomena. In 1821 by John Seebeck (Seebeck 1821), (Seebeck 1823), (Seebeck 1826) firstly observed the coupling of two potentials, the electrochemical potential and the temperature. In 1834 Jean

Thermal Transport in Chalcogenide‐Based Phase Change Materials: A Journey from Fundamental Physics to Device Engineering

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 37, Issue 11, March 19, 2025.
Phase‐change materials (PCMs) are transforming reconfigurable photonics with their electrically tunable optical properties. This review examines the thermal challenges of scaling PCM devices to larger volumes beyond storage‐class applications, emphasizing thermal transport mechanisms, material properties, and design strategies.

State‐of‐the‐Art, Insights, and Perspectives for MOFs‐Nanocomposites and MOF‐Derived (Nano)Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Different approaches to MOF‐NP composite formation, such as ship‐in‐a‐bottle, bottle‐around‐the‐ship and in situ one‐step synthesis, are used. Owing to synergistic effects, the advantageous features of the components of the composites are beneficially combined, and their individual drawbacks are mitigated.
