Thermoelectric (TE) technology, which can convert scrap heat into electricity, has attracted considerable attention. However, broader applications of TE are hindered by lacking high-performance thermoelectric materials, which can be effectively progressed by regulating the carrier concentration. In this work, a series of PbSe(NaCl)x(x = 3, 3.5, 4, 4.5) samples were synthesized through the NaCl salt-assisted approach with Na+and Cl−doped into their lattice. Both theoretical and experimental results demonstrate that manipulating the carrier concentration by adjusting the content of NaCl is conducive to upgrading the electrical transport properties of the materials. The carrier concentration elevated from 2.71 × 1019cm−3to 4.16 × 1019cm−3, and the materials demonstrated a maximum power factor of 2.9 × 10−3W m−1K−2. Combined with an ultralow lattice thermal conductivity of 0.7 W m−1K−1, a high thermoelectric figure of merit (ZT) with 1.26 at 690 K was attained in PbSe(NaCl)4.5. This study provides a guideline for chemical doping to improve the thermoelectric properties of PbSe further and promote its applications.Keywords:chemical doping;salt-assisted;NaCl doping;PbSe;thermoelectric material;thermoelectric performance

A sodium chloride (NaCl) doping–hydration technique was used to modify the structure of Li4SiO4 to improve its sorption properties at a low CO2 concentration. X-ray diffraction, nitrogen adsorption, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and thermogravimetric analyses were conducted to characterize the compositions, textural characteristics, morphologies, chemical valence states, molten phases, and adsorption properties of the synthesized samples. Hydration and NaCl doping produced synergistic effects. On one hand, a small particle size and large specific surface area were obtained, significantly facilitating chemisorption processes. On the other hand, co-doped sodium and chlorine induced molten phases when absorbing CO2, noticeably decreasing CO2 diffusion resistance. Thus, the CO2 absorption rate and uptake were remarkably improved. Different amounts of NaCl also greatly affected the morphology and chemisorption properties of the sorbents. At the optimized NaCl concentration, the sorbent only required 3 wt % doping to attain a maximum sorption capacity of up to 34.2 wt %. Moreover, the high capacity was maintained after 10 sorption/desorption cycles.

Transparent chitosan (CS) film is prepared and its application in high temperature/fire warning is discussed. NaCl-doped chitosan (CS-NaCl) film shows excellent performance in real-time temperature monitoring and fire warning. The temperature warning of CS-NaCl film can be triggered under approximately 50 °C, and it has a good repeatable warning performance under high-temperature conditions. The CS composite film exhibits an ultra-sensitive (0.4 s) warning under fire attacking. A possible electrical conduction and fire-alarm mechanisms are proposed. The addition of NaCl increases the number of charge carriers, which improves the ionic conductivity of the composite film. This study provides a possibility for the application of CS in the field of fire warning.

MgB 2 bulks with NaCl doping amount ranging from 0–30 at% have been prepared by hot pressed sintering process . With the increase of NaCl doping amount, the c axis lattice parameter of MgB 2 monotonously increases, indicating the substitution of Mg atoms by larger Na atoms. Meanwhile, the intensity of diffraction peaks of both NaCl and impurity phase of MgO increases. More compact morphology was found in the NaCl doped MgB 2 samples. The critical transition temperature ( T c ) decreases from 38.2 K to 36.8 K with the increase of NaCl doping amount from 0 to 30 at%, and the corresponding transition width of T c (Δ T c ) increases from 0.5 K to 1.8 K. When the doping amount of NaCl is not exceeding 10 at%, the J c value is about 10 6 A/cm 2 at 4.2 K, 3 T, and 5 × 10 5 A/cm 2 at 10 K, 3T. J c performance of the 5 at% NaCl doped MgB 2 sample (NC05) reaches 6.8 × 10 5 A/cm 2 at 20 K, 2T, which improves approximately 20% compared to the pure one, attributing to the better grain connectivity of MgB 2 and enhancement of flux pinning force by NaCl doping.
