Ultralow-temperature environments (below 1 kelvin, or -272.15 °C) are essential for quantum computation, precision measurement, and quantum matter studies involving large-scale scientific facilities under extreme conditions. Currently, mainstream dilution refrigeration technology for sub-kelvin cooling relies heavily on helium-3, a scarce isotope on Earth. This dependence constitutes a critical bottleneck for the development of quantum technologies and other fields requiring ultralow-temperature environments.
Recently, a research team led by Prof. ZHAO Bangchuan from the Institute of Solid State Physics, Hefei Institutes of Physical Science, Chinese Academy of Sciences, in collaboration with Prof. XIAO Yao from Wenzhou University, has developed a composition gradient strategy to precisely regulate the internal stress distribution and electronic structure of Li-rich Mn-based cathode materials.
Recently, a research team from the Anhui Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics, Hefei Institutes of Physical Science, Chinese Academy of Sciences, developed a fast, multi-platform compatible detection network that can "see" gas leaks in three dimensions.
Recently, a research team led by Profs. WU Zhikun and ZHUANG Shengli from the Institute of Solid State Physics, Hefei Institutes of Physical Science, Chinese Academy of Sciences, in collaboration with Professor LU Zhou from Anhui Normal University, has proposed an instant "anti-galvanic reduction" alloying strategy for the synthesis of large silver nanoclusters.
Recently, researchers from the High Magnetic Field Laboratory (CHMFL), Hefei Institutes of Physical Science, Chinese Academy of Sciences, in collaboration with the State Key Laboratory of Semiconductor Physics and Chip Technologies at the Institute of Semiconductors, Chinese Academy of Sciences, revealed anomalous oscillatory magnetoresistance in an antiferromagnetic kagome semimetal heterostructure and directly identified its corresponding topological magnetic structures.
