SIAT's researchers develop a miniaturized, portable bio-battery, which enables the precise control over bioelectrical stimulation and physiological blood pressure signals.

 a research team led by Prof. LI Liang from the Institute of Solid State Physics, the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, in collaboration with Prof. ZHAI Tianyou from Huazhong University of Science and Technology, has developed a novel "torsion unipolar barrier heterojunction" device. 

Recently, the research team led by Prof. ZHAO Bangchuan from the Institute of Solid State Physics, the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, in collaboration with Prof. ZHONG Guohua from the Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology and Prof. LI Qiang from Qingdao University, achieved real-time tracking of electronic/magnetic structure evolution in Li-rich Mn-based materials during initial cycling through the self-developed operando magnetism characterization device.  

According to a new study led by researchers at The University of Texas at Austin and published in the Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, the change in calcium carbonate dynamics in the ocean appears to have influenced the evolutionary trajectory of tiny but mighty sea creatures: foraminifera.

A new study led by a pair of researchers at the University of Massachusetts Amherst turns long-held conventional wisdom about a certain type of polymer on its head, greatly expanding understanding of how some of biochemistry’s fundamental forces work. The study, released recently in Nature Communications, opens the door for new biomedical research running the gamut from analyzing and identifying proteins and carbohydrates to drug delivery.

As global demand for electric vehicles and renewable energy storage surges, so does the need for affordable and sustainable battery technologies. A new study led by researchers from the Department of Materials Science and NanoEngineering at Rice University, along with collaborators from Baylor University and the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research Thiruvananthapuram, has introduced an innovative solution that could impact electrochemical energy storage technologies. The research was recently published in the journal Advanced Functional Materials.
