Design of a solid-state electrochemical thermal transistor. In the “off” state (left), the active material has reduced oxygen, which reduces its thermal conductivity. In the “on” state (right), the active material is rich in oxygen, greatly increasing its thermal conductivity (Qian Yang, et al. Advanced Functional Materials. February 21, 2023).
