Abstract
It is well-known that optical transparence and electric resistance have a trade-off relationship in transparent electrodes. For this reason, developing methods to predict this relation have been important in various fields of academic research as well as for industrial applications. Herein, we suggest a simple method which reveals the relationship..... More

Abstract
Dihydrogen sulfide (H₂S) gas has a flammable nature and is one of the most toxic and dangerous gases. Even small concentrations can be fatal to humans. Herein, we investigated the H₂S gas-sensing features of commercial pristine cerium oxide (CeO₂ ) and gadolinium (Gd)-doped CeO₂ (GDC) nanoparticles. First, the sensing materials..... More

Abstract
YbCd₂Sb₂ is a promising Zintl compound for waste heat recovery applications due to its low thermal conductivity, originating from its complex crystal structure. Many strategies such as alloying or doping have been suggested to further reduce the thermal conductivity of YbCd₂Sb₂ to improve its thermoelectric performance. However, the..... More

Abstract
Development new high-performance thermoelectric materials for more efficient power generation systems and eco-friendly refrigerating systems has been challenging. Over the past few decades, thermoelectric studies have been focused on increasing the thermoelectric properties of materials. However, for conventional applications, developing of thermoelectric devices or modules with lower cost and..... More

Abstract
A photo-rheological fluid (PRF) is a smart fluid which exhibits different viscosity under UV irradiation. A PRF is comprehensively presented in this work, with particular focus on its responses under UV off/on conditions. The isomeric conversion from SP to MC and vice versa under UV off and on, respectively, showed..... More
