Recently, a research team from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences successfully grew a high-entropy garnet-structured oxide crystal and achieved enhanced laser performance at the 2.8 μm wavelength band. By introducing a high-entropy design into a garnet crystal system, the team obtained a wide emission band near 2.8 μm and continuous-wave laser output with improved average power and beam quality, demonstrating the material’s strong potential as a high-performance gain medium for mid-infrared ultrashort-pulse lasers.
A research team led by Prof. ZHANG Tianshu at the Anhui Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, has successfully developed a low-stress electro-optic switch based on large-aperture β-BBO slab crystals and integrated it into a Nd:YAG hybrid-cavity Innoslab laser system.
Recently, Prof. ZOU Liangjian' s group from the Institute of Solid State Physics, Hefei Institutes of Physical Science, Chinese Academy of Sciences, in collaboration with Professor LIU Dayong from Nantong University, has shown that multiple anisotropic magnetic interactions can give rise to a rich variety of topological magnon phases in two-dimensional Kagome ferromagnets, offering a new platform for the development of magnonic devices and potential applications in quantum information technologies.
Recently, a research team led by Prof. WANG Hongzhi and Prof. HONG Bo from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, in collaboration with Prof. WANG Wei from the First Affiliated Hospital of the University of Science and Technology of China, uncovered a key mechanism underlying chemotherapy resistance and metastasis in small cell lung cancer (SCLC). Their study shows that epigenetic silencing of the RASA4 gene plays a crucial role in driving disease progression.
Recently, a research team led by Prof. KONG Lingtao at the Institute of Solid State Physics, Hefei Institutes of Physical Science, Chinese Academy of Sciences developed a new Metal–Organic Framework (MOF)-based material capable of efficiently removing fluoride ions from water while providing real-time visual detection.
