On January 8, 2026, our paper was published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society, titled “Local Symmetry Breaking Induced Superionic Conductivity in Argyrodites”.

Using adcanced synchrotron x-ray scattering technique, we revealed the local symmetry breaking phenomenon in argyorodites at the atomic scale, which explains how these materials simultaneously exhibit ultralow thermal conductivity and high ionic conductivity. This work offers new local structure insights for designing next-generation functional materials, especially in thermoeletrics and solid-state electrolytes.

我们在硫银锗矿型材料的同步辐射X射线研究发表于JACS

2026年1月8日，我们的文章发表于化学领域顶尖期刊《美国化学会志》（JACS），文章题目为“硫银锗矿型材料中局域对称性破缺导致的超离子输运”。

通过先进的同步辐射X射线散射技术，我们在原子尺度上揭示了硫银锗矿型材料的局域对称性破缺现象，并在机理上揭示了这种结构如何同时实现超低热导率和高效离子传输。 这项工作为设计热电材料和固态电解质等下一代功能材料的局域结构提供了新的思路。
