Realizing thermoelectric cooling and power generation in N-type PbS_0.6Se_0.4 via lattice plainification and interstitial doping

The authors fabricate a thermoelectric cooling device based on n-type PbS based material, which exhibits a remarkable cooling temperature difference of 36.9 K at room temperature, and the single-leg power generation efficiency of 8%.

Vitellogenin receptor mediates heat adaptability of oocyte development in mud crabs and zebrafish

Climate-driven warming affects the reproduction of oviparous ectotherms. Here, authors identify and characterize a VtgR-mediated heat protection mechanism for oocyte development in both mud crabs and zebrafish.

Multiple valence bands convergence and strong phonon scattering lead to high thermoelectric performance in p-type PbSe

Power generation from heat to electricity can be realized by thermoelectric materials. Here, the authors improve the thermoelectric properties in PbSe enabled by multiple bands convergence and strong phonon scattering.

Realization of unpinned two-dimensional dirac states in antimony atomic layers

In graphene and on the surfaces of many topological insulators, the Dirac cones are pinned to high symmetry points in reciprocal space. Here, the authors report that the Dirac cones in atomically-thin Sb layers occur at generic reciprocal-space points which can be tuned by lattice strain.
