Special Issue on the 10th International Symposium on Functional Materials (ISFM2024)
Submission Date: 2024-12-31

Advanced materials have received dramatic increase in their demand in research, development, and applications. The International Symposium on Functional Materials (ISFM) is held a biennial year and attempts to share in the latest innovations, advances, and future multidisciplinary research and development in functional materials with a primary focus on the connection between fundamental science, engineering applications, and commercialization of the materials. The 10th symposium – ISFM 2024- to be held on August 3rd- 6th, 2024 in Sendai, Japan, covers a variety of topics among advanced materials science and technology and especially focuses on the FOUR MAJOR CATEGORIES.

Special Issue on Topological Materials for Thermoelectric Energy Conversion
Submission Date: 2025-05-31

Thermoelectric technologies can convert heat into electricity and vice versa, showing great potential for power generation and greenhouse-gas-free cooling and refrigeration. Many classic thermoelectric materials are famous topological insulators and have shown high (magneto-) thermoelectric performance. Recently, with the surge of topological semimetals, more and more efforts have been dedicated to the exploration of topological semimetals for high transverse thermoelectric performance including Nernst and anomalous Nernst effect. This special issue aims to advance the thermoelectric field with but not limited to topological materials.
