The exceptionally high thermal conductivity after 'alloying' two-dimensional gallium nitride (GaN) and aluminum nitride (AlN)

Huimin Wang et al.

Summary: Alloying is a common method for tuning material properties, especially thermal conductivity. This study reveals that the thermal conductivity of GaxAl1-xN alloys is exceptionally high, contrary to traditional beliefs, due to the weakening of bond polarization during the alloying process. This insight provides valuable information for future research on high-performance thermal management materials.

Optimizing Electronic Quality Factor toward High-Performance Ge1-x-yTaxSbyTe Thermoelectrics: The Role of Transition Metal Doping

Meng Li et al.

Summary: This study critically reviews the correlation between transition metal doping, electronic quality factor, and figure-of-merit of GeTe materials, highlighting the beneficial effects of Ta doping in enhancing the effective mass, Seebeck coefficient, and reducing thermal conductivity. The synthesized Ge1-x-yTaxSbyTe samples demonstrated an increase in Seebeck coefficient with Ta doping and alloying with Sb, leading to a figure-of-merit of approximately 2.0 and a heat-to-electricity efficiency of up to 17.7%. These findings emphasize the potential of Ta doping to stimulate the development of high-performance GeTe-based thermoelectric materials.
