A novel meta-absorber efficiently captures noise across seven octaves–spanning most of the human hearing range–by engineering how fine-tuned resonator arrays manipulate and dissipate energy.

A recent study published in the International Journal of Extreme Manufacturing by researchers from Beijing University of Technology and international collaborators investigates atomic-scale electrochemical deposition as a method for precise control of material properties. The research highlights the potential of this technique to support future developments in areas such as semiconductors, quantum computing, and nanomedicine.

A landmark study published in the Journal of Palaeogeography (Chinese Edition) uncovers how plume-driven tectonics shattered a Permian carbonate ramp into a complex platform system, creating a 400-kilometer-long dolostone hydrocarbon reservoir belt now pivotal to China’s energy exploration. Led by Prof. Yuan Haifeng (Chengdu University of Technology) and Dr. Zhang Benjian (PetroChina Southwest Oil and Gas Field Company), the research resolves decades of debate by precisely dating the tectonic-sedimentary pattern transition to 263–262 Ma using conodont biostratigraphy, while also revealing novel exploration targets.

Join us for a cutting-edge Carbon Research Webinar featuring Prof. Weihong Yang from KTH-Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden, where he will explore innovative strategies to transition from fossil-based materials to sustainable, bio-based graphite alternatives. This talk will provide insights into the conversion of bioprecursors into fossil-free graphite and its applications in lithium-ion batteries and electrochemical systems. A techno-economic assessment and life cycle analysis (LCA) will also be discussed.
