“Zinc-based batteries are promising options for energy storage devices owing to their low cost and high energy density. However, they may encounter serious dendrite issues, especially at high areal capacities and current densities. Recently, a research team led by Prof …
“The research team led by Prof. GUO Guangcan from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), together with Prof. Adam Gali from Wigner Research Centre for Physics, realized robust coherent control …
“Recently, Professor YANG Liangbao, from the Institute of Health and Medical Technology, Hefei Institutes of Physical Science (HFIPS), developed a general surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) method for actively capturing target molecules in small gaps based on nano-capillary pumping model. Relevant …
“Roaming, a novel mechanism in reaction dynamics, describes an unusual pathway that is quite different from the conventional minimum-energy path. It is facilitated by the initial frustrated dissociation to form radical products, and then the meandering of the incipient radicals …
News Chiral Lead-free Hybrid Perovskites Developed for Self-powered Circularly Polarized Light Detection
“The metal-halide perovskites feature the distinctive structure flexibility, which enables the employment of chiral organic cations to construct chiral perovskites. Such chiral perovskites are the promising alternative for circular polarized light (CPL) detection owing to their efficient charge transport of …
News Fatigue-free Layered Hybrid Perovskite Ferroelectric Developed for Photovoltaic Non-volatile Memories
“Ferroelectric materials with reversible spontaneous polarization have been extensively investigated as active media for non-volatile memories. However, most of the ferroelectric materials known suffer from high internal resistances, large bandgap, and poor carrier transportation, which hindered their further applications. The …
“Lithium metal batteries could double the amount of energy held by lithium-ion batteries, if only their anodes didn’t break down into small pieces when they were used. Now, researchers led by Prof. CUI Guanglei from the Qingdao Institute of …
News First Measurement Device Independent Quantum Key Distribution Experiment to Secure Communication
“PAN Jianwei and colleagues PENG Chengzhi and ZHANG Qiang, from University of Science and Technology of China of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), collaborating with WANG Xiangbin from Tsinghua University and YOU Lixing from Shanghai Institute of Microsystems of …
“Lithium is an energy-critical element that is considered to be a geopolitically significant resource. However, the supply of lithium may not be enough to meet continuously increasing demand. As a result, scientists are looking for new ways to extract lithium …
“Researchers from CAS Key Laboratory of Quantum Information of the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences have demonstrated on-demand storage of photonic qubits in an integrated solid-state quantum memory for the first …
