Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells (PEMFCs) are acclaimed for their high energy density and eco-friendly nature.[1], [2] Thereinto, Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM), as one of the key component, determines the longevity and efficiency of PEMFCs. However, the generation of harmful free radicals in the PEM during their operation mainly hinders its real performance [3], [4].

Exceptionally low thermal conductivity in simple two-dimensional SiS: anomalous emergence of rattling phonon modes in non-caged materials The two-dimensional orthorhombic phase of SiS demonstrates extremely low thermal conductivity along both in-plane directions. This unique behavior arises from the Coulomb interaction among lone pair electrons at adjacent S atoms, which induce low-lying rattling optical modes with ultralow frequency.
