摘要:Efficient and sustainable cooling is paramount to contemporary living. However, current cooling strategies require substantial energy. Thermoelectric technology could reduce energy consumption through localized cooling ( 1 ). This requires devices that efficiently convert electron flow into heat exchange, which has proven to be a formidable material challenge. On page 1204 of this issue, Qin et al. ( 2 ) report that through manipulating a material's atomic configuration and microstructure, out...

摘要:Many examples of exposed giant dike swarms can be found where lateral magma flow has exceeded hundreds of kilometers. We show that massive magma flow into dikes can be established with only modest overpressure in a magma body if a large enough pathway opens at its boundary and gradual buildup of high tensile stress has occurred along the dike pathway prior to the onset of diking. This explains rapid initial magma flow rates, modeled up to about 7400 cubic meters per second into a dike similar ...

摘要:Thermoelectric cooling technology has important applications for processes such as precise temperature control in intelligent electronics. The bismuth telluride (Bi2Te3)-based coolers currently in use are limited by the scarcity of Te and less-than-ideal cooling capability. We demonstrate how removing lattice vacancies through a grid-design strategy switched PbSe from being useful as a medium-temperature power generator to a thermoelectric cooler. At room temperature, the seven-pair device bas...
