Demonstration of controlled high-dimensional quantum teleportation

Controlled quantum teleportation(CQT), which is regarded as the prelude and backbone for a genuine quantum internet, reveals the cooperation, supervision, and control relationship among the sender, receiver, and controller in the quantum network within the simplest unit. Compared with low-dimensional counterparts, high-dimensional CQT can exhibit larger information transmission capacity and higher superiority of the controller’s authority. In this article, we report a proof-of-principle experime...

A micro-wave strategy for synthesizing room temperature phosphorescent materials

Room temperature phosphorescent(RTP) materials have a variety of applications ranging from bioimaging, optoelectronic devices to information security protection. However, the preparation procedures for these materials are always tedious and time-consuming. Here, we report a micro-wave approach to prepare RTP carbon dots(CDs) in only 8 min.

Engineering surface oxygen vacancy of mesoporous CeO2 nanosheets assembled microspheres for boosting solar-driven photocatalytic performance

Surface oxygen vacancy defects of mesoporous CeO₂ nanosheets assembled microspheres（D-CeO₂） are engineered by polymer precipitation, hydrothermal and surface hydrogenation strategies. The resultant D-CeO₂ with a main pore diameter of 9.3 nm has a large specific surface area（～102.3 m²/g） and high thermal stability. The mesoporous nanosheets assembled microsphere structure prevents the nanosheets from aggregation, which is beneficial to effective mass tr...

Synthesis of PtCu-based nanocatalysts:Fundamentals and emerging challenges in energy conversion

Proton exchange membrane fuel cell and direct methanol fuel cells have gained more attention due to high-energy density,remarkable conversion efficiency,and low emission.However,their widely practical application was hindered by the high usage,limited sources,and high price of Pt catalysts.To achieve more cost-effective catalytic systems,PtCu-based multi-metallic nanoparticles are highly efficient for the oxygen reduction reaction(ORR)and methanol oxidation reaction(MOR).The incorporation of non-noble Cu metal can alter the properties of hybrids by forming new facets,planes,edges to promote the cleavage or formation of chemical bonds in catalytic reaction.This is a rapid growing area with numerous contributions from the interdisciplinary areas of nanocatalysis.This paper has summarized the recent progress in the past two years,in synthesizing PtCu-based alloys with various composition and morphologies,and critically discussed the effect of the catalyst preparation method,metal precursor,surfactant,reductant and heating temperature on nanostructure and electronic configuration.The important role of the composition,size,and morphology of PtCu bimetallic catalysts for electro oxidation reactions has been further established for structure-dependency studies.The challenges and perspectives of nanocatalysts for ORR and MOR discussed in this work is to provide further insights into rational design for cost-effective materials for energy.
