Recently, a research team led by Prof. WANG Zhenyang from the Institute of Solid State Physics, Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, developed two interfacial regulation strategies to improve the stability of silicon–carbon composite anodes for lithium-ion batteries. The team proposed a laser-directed covalent bonding strategy and a hierarchical dual-coating regulation strategy, both of which effectively suppressed interfacial failure induced by volume expansion and significantly enhanced the cycling stability and electrochemical performance of the batteries.
Recently, a research team led by Prof. WANG Hui from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, in collaboration with Prof. ZHAO Yanli’ s group from Nanyang Technological University, constructed a novel urchin-like copper single-atom nanozyme (UCCSE) and revealed that needle length plays a critical role in enhancing cellular uptake and chemodynamic tumor therapy efficiency.
The Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (HFIPS, CAS), Macau University of Science and Technology (MUST), and The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) have joined forces to establish the Joint Laboratory for Spectroscopic Detection of Matter Composition in Deep Space (Lab-DeepSpec) on Science Island, Hefei.
A research team led by Professor JIANG Changlong at the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science, Chinese Academy of Sciences, has developed a highly sensitive, real-time sensor for detecting trace water, addressing key challenges in modern industrial quality control and environmental monitoring.
A research team from the Institute of Solid State Physics, the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, together with Zhejiang Juhua Equipment Engineering Group Co., Ltd., Dongguan University of Technology, and the Institute of Nuclear Physics and Chemistry of the China Academy of Engineering Physics, has discovered a high-energy-density barocaloric effect in the plastic superionic conductor Ag₂Te₁₋ₓSₓ.
