Our Nature Materials paper on "Goniopolar Materials" is out. We discover that NaSn2As2 is a new kind of electronic material that behaves either n-type or p-type, depending on whether conduction is in-plane or cross-plane .nature.com/articles/s4156… Nature Materials

Opening ceremonies for Peidong’s 20th year celebration.

20 years, over 120 grad students and postdocs

Dan’s paper on “Room-Temperature magnetism” in Na-intercalated Fe3GeTe2 is in Nano Letters ASAP. Turns out magnetism at room temp is due to trace amorphous FexGe impurities that form upon intercalation. Careful what you measure... pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Awesome news that OSU CBC is establishing two new national facilities through the NSF mid-scale instrumentation grants. artsandsciences.osu.edu/news/27-millio…

Celebrating awesome tenure and promotion talks by nagib lab Goldberger Group Badu-Taiwah! Really fantastic science shared with the department- congratulations! Ohio State Chemistry and Biochemistry

Congratulations to Goodenough and Whittingham and Yoshino for the Nobel! Incredibly well deserved! We’ve been waiting for this Nobel for at least the last 10 years. nobelprize.org/prizes/chemist…

Kelsey's work on alkyne hydrogenation catalysis using BaGa2 is out in JACS ASAP! It turns out hydrogen absorbing solid-state compounds are ... (*surprise*) ... fantastic heterogenous hydrogenation catalysts! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

Thinking back to my PhD experience, I am VERY unsurprised about the news this week...

If anyone is looking for a good read about the Synthesis, Structural, and Electronic Properties of Sr1-xCaxPdAs it is now published in Inorganic Chemistry Frontiers. pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

Mike's paper is finally out in Energy and Environmental Science! You can make entire thermoelectric modules that are just as efficient as what you can buy, and can actually survive the heat, out of a single rotated Re4Si7 crystal. pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

Here's a recent press release on our work on transverse thermoelectrics. One of the first applications for axis-dependent conduction polarity. PARADIM @WolfgangWindl news.osu.edu/a-new-gold-sta…
