Electric-field-tunable thermal conductivity in anti-ferroelectric materials

Shuyao Lin et al.

Summary: Based on density functional theory (DFT) calculations, the thermal conductivities of LiBeP in both the ferroelectric (FE) and anti-ferroelectric (AFE) phases have been evaluated using the self-consistent phonon method (SCP) combined with the compressive sensing (CS) approach. It is found that the thermal conductivities can be tailored by more than 50% at room temperature upon the FE-AFE phase transitions. Analysis on the phonon modes and scattering space reveals significant anharmonic effects in LiBeP. The significant change of the thermal conductivity makes it a promising candidate for thermal management materials with tunable thermal conductivities by electric fields.

Synergistic effects of Eu and Nb dual substitution on improving the thermoelectric performance of the natural perovskite CaTiO3

Xingxing Xiao et al.

Summary: Driven by the development of sustainable and regenerable energy conversion materials, the mineral perovskite (CaTiO3) is considered to be a potential candidate for large-scale high-temperature applications. In this study, a series of compounds with the nominal composition Ca1-xEuxTi0.9Nb0.1O3 (0 <= x <= 0.4) were synthesized and studied. The results show that dual substitution by Nb and Eu can improve electrical transport properties and simultaneously suppress thermal conductivity. The best sample Ca0.8Eu0.2Ti0.9Nb0.1O3 exhibits the maximum ZT of up to 0.3 at around 1173 K, due to its largest power factor and lowest thermal conductivity.

Anomalous Thermal Transport Driven by Electron-Phonon Coupling in 2D Semiconductor h-BP

Zizhen Zhou et al.

Summary: In 2D semiconductor hexagonal boron phosphorus, electron-phonon coupling can be significantly enhanced or dominant through doping, leading to a significant reduction in lattice thermal conductivity. This unique phenomenon is attributed to the joint effects of horizontal mirror symmetry breaking and weak phonon-phonon scattering.

Effects of Doping Ni on the Microstructures and Thermoelectric Properties of Co-Excessive NbCoSn Half-Heusler Compounds

Ruijuan Yan et al.

Summary: This study tailored the microstructure of NbCoSn by precipitating full-Heusler phases in the matrix through changing the nominal ratio of Co and Ni on the Co sites to improve its thermoelectric properties. First-principles calculations revealed that the presence of excess Co/Ni increased carrier concentration, leading to enhanced electrical conductivity and reduced thermal conductivity, ultimately improving the TE performance.
