The application of electromagnetic technology is becoming increasingly widespread, constantly expanding the scope of people's lives. However, the promotion and application of these electromagnetic products will also generate a large amount of electromagnetic waves (EMW), causing serious electromagnetic pollution. The design and preparation of high-performance EMW absorption materials is crucial, and composite materials with multiphase non-uniform interfaces are an ideal research object.

Prof. Zhongfang Li’s team (Shandong University of Technology) provides linking metalloporphyrins into fully conjugated covalent organic frameworks (COFs) with sp² bonds to be fully conjugated COFs.

A breakthrough in battery technology has been made with the development of a polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF)-Li₂CO₃ nanofiber network. This new material, developed through electrospinning, serves as a host for stable lithium metal plating and stripping, enabling a lithium metal anode for a battery. By integrating lithium carbonate into the nanofiber structure, researchers have created a more uniform lithium deposition, reducing dendrite formation and enhancing battery performance.

A study by YSE scientists on greenhouse gas fluxes in the Florida wetlands provides a path for maximizing carbon capture through water management.

A new report sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) recommends increased investment in America’s fusion diagnostic capabilities, a critical new technology that could provide DOE and Congress with information to speed up the delivery of commercial fusion power plants.
