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

Wei Xia's Team | A Surface Halogenation Strategy for Extending Cycle Life in Silicon-Based Solid-State Batteries

Imagine smartphones that require charging only once a week, or electric vehicles capable of exceeding 1,000 km on a single charge. All-solid-state batteries (ASSBs), regarded as the next-generation power source, could turn this vision into reality.However, a critical challenge hinders their development: when high-capacity silicon is used as the anode, it exhibits severe interfacial incompatibility with sulfide-based solid electrolytes (e.g., Li₆PS₅Cl, LPSC). Continuous side reactions at the inte

Chen Zhu's Team | Wielding Electricity to Rewrite Molecules—Organic Electrosynthesis Awakens Dormant Bonds

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

How Did Eukaryotic DNA Replication Machinery Evolve? Professor Fabai Wu's Team Finds Answers in Archaea

The accurate replication of genetic material DNA is one of the most fundamental biological processes essential for the survival, growth, and reproduction of all living organisms. Eukaryotes, including humans, plants, yeast, and paramecia, share a similarly complex DNA replication machinery. How did this sophisticated machinery evolve? A team led by Associate Professor Fabai Wu from the College of Science at Eastern Institute of Technology, Ningbo has found answers in a group of marine archaea.On

Research Progress | Worried About Parkinson's Disease? Act Early by Monitoring This Biomarker

A team led by Chair Professor Zongwei Cai at Eastern Institute of Technology, Ningbo (EIT) has discovered a significant elevation of sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) levels in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of Parkinsons disease (PD) patients. This alteration is closely associated with the regulation of its upstream switch, sphingosine kinase 1 (SPHK1). Further research suggests that S1P plays a critical role in amplifying neuroinflammation and facilitating the pathological aggregation of α-synuclei
