TL;DR: Agarwal et al. as mentioned in this paper report carbon nanotube-based materials with selected properties that exhibit enhanced thermoelectric performance, which are low-cost, versatile alternatives to more established inorganic ones.

TL;DR: In this paper, a combination of ink chemistry, solid-state polymer removal, and charge-transfer doping strategies was used to achieve unprecedented n-type and p-type TE power factors, in the range of 700 μW m−1 K−2 at 298 K for the same solution-processed highly enriched thin films containing 100% s-SWCNTs.

TL;DR: In this paper, a demonstration of long-distance spin transport through an amorphous magnetic insulator shows that magnetic order is not required, and may not even be desirable, in materials for magnonic and spintronic applications.

TL;DR: In this article, thermal and electrical conductivity of polycrystalline permalloy (Ni-Fe), aluminum, copper, cobalt, and nickel thin films with thickness $l200$ nm were measured using a micromachined silicon-nitride membrane thermal isolation platform.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compare electrical spin injection to the more recently discovered thermal spin injection in a non-local spin valve, and show that despite a strong reduction of electrical spins injection that they tie to the loss of interfacial spin polarization, thermal spins injection remains a large effect.
