Recently, Professor WU Dayu of Changzhou University, the user of China's Steady High Magnetic Field Facility (SHMFF), Hefei Institutes of Physical Science (HFIPS) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), together with his collaborators proposed a facile mechanical strategy to optimize the electronic structures of the catalytic center by mechanically induced spin transition, and realized a new method for designing efficient biomimetic catalysts.
Organic peroxy radicals (RO2) are important intermediates in the degradation of atmospheric volatile organic compounds (VOCs). RO2 not only participates in the chain cycles of atmospheric radicals and influences oxidizing capacity of the atmosphere, but also controls the formation of secondary pollutants.
Recently, a research team led by Prof. WANG Huanqin from the Hefei Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences provided an overview of the main progress in mobile and stationary source monitoring technology in China.
There are many sputtered metal film heaters in the market, but they are opaque and can only be used on the back of the anti-counterfeiting label. Also, the heating rate is slow and the bending resistance is usually poor.
Taking advantage of ultrafast time-resolved pump detection technology, a collaborated research led by Prof. SHENG Zhigao's team from High Magnetic Field Center of Hefei Institutes of Physical Science (HFIPS) of Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) realized the birefringence modulation of GHz frequency induced by ultrafast coherent phonons in SrTiO3 crystals.
