Approaching crystal’s limit of thermoelectrics by nano-sintering-aid at grain boundaries

The authors develop a liquid-phase sintering strategy to effectively enlarge material’s grain sizes, thereby achieving single crystal-like electronic transport properties in polycrystalline Mg₃(Bi, Sb)₂.

Modeling critical thermoelectric transports driven by band broadening and phonon softening

The authors develop a quantitative theory to model and tune the electrical transports during critical phase transitions by incorporating both the band broadening effect and carrier-soft TO phonon interactions.

A facile alternative strategy of upcycling mixed plastic waste into vitrimers

Chemical depolymerization is a promising approach to recycle plastic waste, but complete depolymerization is energy-intense. Here, the authors show upcycling of mixed plastic waste to highly-crosslinked, reprocessable vitrimers through incomplete depolymerization using glycerol as a cleaving agent.
