Article Abstract
We synthesized CoSbTeGe ( = 0.5-0.8) using high-pressure, high-temperature conditions at ∼2 GPa and ∼900 K. The microstructure, morphology, and components were characterized via X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD). EBSD indicated that the average grain size of CoSbTeGe was 1 μm. Electrical conductivity, Seebeck coefficient, and thermal conductivity were measured from 300 to 800 K. The minimum lattice thermal conductivity of CoSbTeGe was 0.72 W m K, 74% lower than that at 300 K. The introduction of Te and Ge effectively enhanced point effects scattering and location scattering, notably decreasing lattice thermal conductivity. Therefore, the maximum value of CoSbTeGe was 1.13 at 800 K. These results indicate that high pressure combined with multielement substitution optimized the thermoelectric transport properties of skutterudites.

SnSe is a layered semiconductor with intrinsically low thermal conductivity, making it a promising candidate for thermoelectric and thermal management applications. However, detailed measurements of the intrinsic thermal conductivity of SnSe nanosheets grown by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) remain scarce. Here, monocrystalline SnSe nanosheets were synthesized by CVD, with systematic investigation of thickness-dependent in-plane thermal conductivity.

Li/CF primary batteries are renowned for their exceptional energy density, yet their practical deployment is hindered by the inherently sluggish kinetics of the CF cathode. This study addresses this limitation by incorporating selenium (Se) into CF (denoted as CF/Se) via a facile low-temperature thermal treatment, significantly enhancing its electrochemical performance. Comprehensive spectroscopic and electrochemical analyses reveal that Se doping induces the formation of CSe bonds, which promote semi-ionic CF bonding, thereby accelerating Li diffusion and reducing charge transfer resistance.

The processes of thermoforming 2D-printed electronics into 3D structures can introduce defects that impact the electrical performance of conductors, making them more susceptible to thermal failure during high electrical power/current applications on temperature-sensitive substrates. We therefore report the use of a thin-film boron nitride nanotube (BNNT) interlayer to directly reduce heat stress on linear and serpentine metallic traces on polycarbonate substrates thermoformed to 3D spherocylindrical geometries at varying elongation percentages. We demonstrate that the BNNT interlayer helps to improve the electrical conductivity of highly elongated thermoformed 3D traces in comparison to traces on bare polycarbonate.

Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) exhibit outstanding structural tunability, clearly defined ion pathways, and remarkable thermal/chemical stabilities, rendering them highly promising candidates for applications in solid-state electrolytes. However, it remains a challenge to develop a versatile method to incorporate both ionic groups and electron-withdrawing units into a single framework for effectively improving the lithium-ion conductivity. Herein, a series of novel [3+3] defective COFs is successfully synthesized featuring active amine/aldehyde anchoring sites for subsequent post-modification, and regulates the ion conductivity through elaborately tuning the anionic/cationic groups and weak/strong electron-withdrawing units.

Sulfide solid electrolytes (SEs) exhibit excellent ionic conductivity and good mechanical properties, but their poor air stability and solid-solid contact performance seriously hinder the wide application of sulfide all-solid-state batteries (ASSBs). Herein, this paper reviews the history and the major breakthroughs in the development of sulfide SEs. The theories of hard-soft-acid-base theory and glass structure theory, as well as several strategies to improve the chemical stability of sulfide SEs, are discussed emphatically.
