Reducing lattice thermal conductivity through external modulation techniques such as defect
engineering may potentially interfere with electronic transport. Materials with intrinsically low …

This work systematically investigates the lattice dynamics and phonon thermal transport
behavior of the typical negative thermal expansion (NTE) material, cubic ScF 3. By …

Controlling the elastic properties of the material could become a powerful tool for tuning the
thermal transport in solids. Nevertheless, the impact of the crystal structure, chemical …

We study the effects of the chemical short-range order (SRO) on the thermal conductivity of
the refractory high-entropy alloy HfNbTaTiZr using atomistic simulation. Samples with …

Thermoelectric materials enable heat-to-electricity conversion, while its efficiency has so far
been restricted by the dimensionless figure of merit (ZT). In this study, we employ first …

Lead halide perovskites are renowned for their exceptional optoelectronic properties but
face concerns over lead toxicity and stability, which drives the exploration of lead-free …
