A recent study published in ACS Sensors highlights the development of a smart electronic nose (e-nose) by a research team led by Prof. MENG Gang from Hefei Institutes of Physical Science (HFIPS), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS). The novel e-nose utilizes self-heating modulation strategy to accurately distinguish various kinds of target gas molecules within just 1 second.
Recently, a research group led by Prof. YANG Yong from Hefei Institutes of Physical Science (HFIPS), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), has made progress in the study of the effects of neighboring adsorbate and quantum tunneling on the diffusion of hydrogen on graphene surface.
Recently, Prof. Dr. YANG Yong from Hefei Institutes of Physical Science (HFIPS), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) made important progress in the dynamics of quantum particles across double barriers, which opens a possible avenue for ultrahigh precision measurement based on atomic systems.
A research team led by Prof. ZHANG Haimin from the Institute of Solid State Physics, Hefei Institutes of Physical Science (HFIPS) of Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) has conducted a systematic study on the regulation mechanism of heterostructure bimetallic phosphide electrocatalysts for enhanced electrochemical nitrate reduction reaction performance.
Recently, the experimental advanced superconducting tokamak (EAST), also known as the Chinese "artificial sun," started operation with over a hundred Chinese and foreign scientists conducting joint physics experiments on Science Island before China's Spring Festival. This is to demonstrate and address technical challenges for the international nuclear fusion research and engineering megaproject ITER.
