Chen Zhu's Team | Programming Strained Rings to Grow Multiple Functional Groups in One Step

In the world of chemistry, strained rings such as cyclopropanes and cyclobutanes behave like compressed springs, storing considerable reaction driving force. Yet a long‑standing problem has remained: after ring opening, reactions typically stop at the 1,3‑or 1,4‑difunctionalization stage, making it extremely difficult to continue “adding”functional groups on adjacent carbons.Now, a collaborative team led by Prof. Chen Zhu of Eastern Institute of Technology, Ningbo and Prof. Tao Shen of Shanghai

Suhuai Wei's Team | Illuminating the Future of Quantum Communication

In quantum communication, optical fibers serve as the information superhighway, with single photons acting as the vehicles carrying information. However, most existing single-photon sources can only travel along the visible or near-infrared sections of this highway, preventing them from directly entering the telecommunication band (1260–1625 nm). This limitation severely compromises transmission efficiency.A research team led by Professor Suhuai Wei, Chair Professor at the School of Physics, Col

Wei Xia's Team | "Disordering" Crystals Leads to Unexpected Low-Cost Solid-State Electrolytes

In the realm of materials science, well-ordered crystalline structures have long been regarded as the high achievers. This conventional mindset has led to the entrenched belief that halide electrolytes must be lithium-rich to be highly conductive and crystalline to be effective. Consequently, the exploration of ion conduction in amorphous materials has been relatively limited for an extended period.Wei Xia, Assistant Professor at the Eastern Institute of Technology, Ningbo (EIT), and his collabo

Close your eyes and draw a finger across a surface—you can instantly discern the coolness of glass, the grain of wood, or the softness of fabric. This innate human capability, known simply as touch , is now emerging as a sensory modality that researchers are actively working to impart to robotic systems.Future surgical robots could sense vascular pulsation. Prosthetic limbs could provide amputees with realistic haptic feedback during grip. Even smartphone screens might one day allow users to dis

Zhangxing Chen & Heng Zhao's Team | A Novel Strategy for Valorizing Methane

The greenhouse gases methane and carbon dioxide are major contributors to global warming. Dry reforming of methane (DRM, CH₄+ CO₂→2CO + 2H₂) is a process capable of converting both gases simultaneously into useful syngas. However, this reaction requires temperatures above 700°C, and catalysts are prone to rapid deactivation, primarily through coking, which has hindered its large-scale industrial adoption.A significant advancement has now been made by the team led by Zhangxing Chen, Chair Profess

organic electrosynthesisis the modern conductor who directs molecules not with heat, not with acids or bases, but with a stream of electricity.As electrons flow gently across the electrode surface, they apply a soft yet precise electric-field nudge to molecules, causing previously inert chemical bonds to cleave and reorganize at just the right moment, composing entirely new molecular architectures.The key advantage of electrosynthesis lies in its ability to precisely control reaction patterns, s
