This news release, originally issued by the University of Virginia, describes the development of a new 3d-printable soft material that matches the mechanical properties of vocal cords. The researcher team collaborated with Brookhaven Lab scientists Guillaume Freychet and Mikhail Zhernenkov to reveal the inner makeup of the printed material. By using the Soft Matter Interfaces (SMI) beamline at the National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II), the team was able to investigate the sample without damaging the samples. NSLS-II is a U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Science User Facility located at DOE’s Brookhaven National Laboratory that offers a comprehensive suite of scattering and diffraction beamlines for research on new materials.

Thermoelectric (TE) conversion offers a carbon-free power generation from geothermal, waste, body or solar heat, and shows promise to be the next-generation energy conversion technology. At the core of such TE conversion, there lies an all solid-state thermoelectric device which enables energy conversion without the emission of noise, vibrations, or pollutants. To this, a POSTECH research team proposed a way to design the next-generation thermoelectric device that exhibits remarkably simple manufacturing process and structure compared to the conventional ones, while displaying improved energy conversion efficiency using the spin Seebeck effect (SSE).1
