A new strategy was proposed in the field of aqueous zinc ion battery to help increase the capacity of the cathodes, making them more efficient, according to a recent research published in ACS Nano.
According to research published in Advanced Functional Materials recently, a team led by Prof. HU Linhua. from Hefei Institutes of Physical Science (HFIPS), Chinese Academy of Science (CAS) found that the addition of disodium maleate (DMA) in the electrolyte of aqueous zinc-ion battery would lead to the preferred Zn (002) texture growth, which could effectively inhibit the Zn dendrite growth and ameliorate the reversibility and cyclability of batteries.
Recently, a research team led by Prof. WU Zhengyan from Hefei Institutes of Physical Science, Chinese Academy of Sciences, in collaboration Binzhou Medical University, successfully designed a nanostructure that improves the detection and treatment of tumors.
"China is making remarkable progress in fusion research and the clean energy future calls on more international cooperation, several global fusion energy," according to experts who attended the The 10th International Advisory Committee Meeting of EAST (the Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak) on Wednesday in Hefei, Anhui Province.
Recently, researchers from Hefei Institutes of Physical Science (HFIPS) of Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) designed Slater-Pauling (S-P) Heusler materials with a unique structure resembling a Rubik's cube. These materials showed potential in thermoelectric applications due to their semiconductor-like properties.
