In a study to publish in Nature on January 31, researchers at the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) report advances in the development of hydrogen fuel cells that could increase its application in vehicles, especially in extreme temperatures like cold winters. Hydrogen is considered one of the most promising clean energy sources of the […]
Researchers Achieve Multifunctional Solid-State Quantum Memory
The team of Li Chengfeng, Zhou Zongquan and others from the CAS Key Lab of Quantum Information developed a multi-degree-of-freedom (DOF) multiplexed solid-state quantum memory, and demonstrated photon pulse operation functions with time and frequency DOFs. The results were published in Nature Communications recently. The reliable storage and coherent manipulation of quantum states with matter-systems enable the […]

A Breakthrough In ‘Dead Layer’ Of Antiferromagnet
Since the early 1930s when Louis Néel found the anomaly that some materials containing magnetic elements and showing zero remanence at all temperatures did not follow the paramagnetic Curie law, the constant low-temperature susceptibility behind this phenomenon which is called antiferromagnet (AFM) has drew tremendous attentions and found numerous applications, especially in the area of […]
