A research team led by Prof. JI Shulin from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science developed a novel transparent heating film made of silver nanowires that can be used to fabricate a paper-based silver nanowire film heater. Its film resistance is much lower than that of indium tin oxide.
Prof. ZHENG Meiling's team from the Technical Institute of Physics and Chemistry proposed an anion exchange strategy and developed a carbazole-based anion-ion water-soluble two-photon initiator (TPI) (CB7/BT) through host-guest chemical interaction, which improves the nonlinear optical property of the water-soluble TPI.
During taxonomic studies on Cynanchum, researchers from the Wuhan Botanical Garden found that the distinctions between Cynanchum thesioides and C. gobicum Grubov are questionable.
Using ultrafast time-resolved pump detection technology, researchers led by Prof. SHENG Zhigao from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science have realized the gigahertz frequency birefringence modulation induced by ultrafast coherent phonons in strontium titanate crystals.
When talking about women scientists, who's the first person that comes to your mind? To celebrate International Women's Day, we interviewed five female scientists who are interested in different fields, such as ancient fish, the Tibetan Plateau, biochemical engineering, chemistry, and climate change.
The Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Telescope, the world's largest single dish telescope, has discovered over 740 pulsars, said Jiang Peng, chief engineer of the telescope and a deputy to the 14th National People's Congress.
Chinese scientists have found a rare plant species Paphiopedilum wardii Summerhayes in southwest China's Yunnan Province. It is the only known wild population of such plants in China.
