Two-dimensional (2D) ferroelectric materials (FEMs) and their application in ferroelectric tunnel junctions (FTJs) have attracted much attention. But the way to better integrate with the present semiconductor technology remains secret. Recently, physicists from Institute of Solid State P...
A research group led by Prof. ZANG Haimin from the Institute of Solid State Physics, Hefei Institutes of Physical Science reported their finding about inactivation and regeneration of highly ordered Nb2O5 nanochannel film catalyst for electrocatalytic N2 reduction. Ammonia (NH3) has been...
Hydrogen sulfide is one of the most common toxic contaminants frequently utilized in various fields, including the oil, gas, waste treatment, and paper industries. Even trace amounts of H2S gas are extremely toxic to many organisms, such as human respiratory and nerve systems. Generally, it ...
About 90% of the world’s energy use involves generation or manipulation of heat, while controlling thermal transport is yet a challenge in many fields, varying from the micro- and nano-scale electronic devices to aeronautics. Materials exhibiting abrupt transition between low and high therm...
A binary nanoparticle array refers to a periodic structure comprising at least two types of building nanoparticles with component or morphological dissimilarities. Synthetic binary arrays can not only boost structural diversity, but also new optical or thermoelectronic properties synergized ...
