Today is national teachers’ day. No matter where we are in life, a teacher influenced us. HFIPS is also where the Science Island Branch of Graduate School, USTC located. It offers program including Physics, Chemistry, Life Science, Engineering Science, information technology, etc. for graduated students. All the graduates and PhD students will have a lab research work at HFIPS from the second year after a one-year study of general and basic course at USTC. After gaining all the credits ang meeting requirements, the students will earn degree from the USTC.
On sept. 7, researchers saw another Earth observation satellite, Gaofen-5 02, launched in Taiyuan Satellite Launch Center, Shanxi province. It’s a hyperspectral imaging satellite, capable of monitoring air pollution.
Recently, A team led by Prof. WU Zhengyan from Institute of Intelligent Machines,Hefei Institutes of Physical Science fabricated novel functional biochar composites (FBCs) using two solid waste-red mud and corn straw-and exploited them in acidic dye wastewater treatment. The paper was published in Journal of Cleaner Production.
A research team proposed a genetic classifier that can predict the sensitivity of neoadjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer in the field of tumor molecular markers recently. The team is led by Prof. YANG Wulin and DAI Haiming from Hefei Institutes of Physical Science (HFIPS), Chinese Academy of Sciences.
High refractive index of the substrate material often leads to serious reflection on the surface of infrared optical elements, which will greatly reduce the transmittance of infrared light. To maximize the transmission of infrared light, antireflection (AR) film needs to be plated on the surface of infrared substrate. At present, sol-gel technology is an effective method for preparing high temperature resistant film. However, the thickness of the infrared AR film is large, and with the increase of thickness, the film will crack during annealing. Therefore, it is necessary to prepare the infrared AR coating by sol-gel method.
