Academic Background In recent years, multiple outbreaks caused by coronaviruses have occurred globally, such as SARS (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome), MERS (Middle East Respiratory Syndrome), and COVID-19 (Novel Coronavirus Pneumonia). These pandemics have not only posed a serious threat to human health but also exposed the inadequacy of emergen...
Academic Background With the increasing severity of global clean water shortages, research on drinking water purification technologies has become particularly important. In drinking water treatment processes, chlorination and chlorine dioxide disinfection are commonly used methods. Although they effectively kill bacteria and viruses, they also prod...
Academic Background Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a crucial tool in modern medical diagnostics, and its effectiveness relies heavily on the use of contrast agents (CAs). Traditional MRI contrast agents are mainly based on gadolinium (Gd) complexes. Although these agents are widely used in clinical practice, their long-term safety is controver...
Academic Background In the field of photocatalysis, the development of efficient and sustainable reducing catalysts has long been a significant research focus. Organic anions have attracted considerable attention in recent years due to their sustainability and strong reducing abilities. However, traditional phenolates are limited in their applicati...
Academic Background As the issue of global climate change intensifies, reducing carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and seeking sustainable energy solutions have become major directions in scientific research. Electrocatalytic CO2 reduction (CO2RR) is a green technology that converts CO2 into value-added chemicals and fuels, holding enormous application...
Academic Background In the chemical industry, the separation of benzene derivatives is a critically important and challenging process. Benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and the xylene isomers (o-xylene, m-xylene, p-xylene) typically exist as mixtures in the petroleum industry, collectively referred to as BTEXs. Among them, o-xylene (OX) is a key feed...
Academic Background With the global demand for sustainable development on the rise, the chemical industry is facing an urgent challenge to transition from fossil fuels to renewable resources. Currently, the carbon skeleton of the vast majority of synthetic chemical products is derived from non-renewable fossil fuels, which not only exacerbates carb...
Academic Background Perovskite materials have attracted extensive attention due to their wide applications in solar cells and other electronic devices. Their optical properties (such as bandgap and lattice vibrations) can be flexibly modulated by tuning the chemical composition. Although the prediction of optical properties from perovskite structur...
Research Background Near-infrared (NIR) light holds significant application value in the biomedical field, particularly in non-invasive high-resolution imaging. NIR light can penetrate biological tissues and exhibits notable absorption differences for oxygenated and deoxygenated hemoglobin at specific wavelengths (e.g., 800 nm), making it an ideal ...
Academic Background In the field of solar energy conversion, molecular catalysts have attracted significant attention due to their high activity and structural tunability. However, most molecular catalysts operate under homogeneous conditions, which are not favorable for large-scale and recyclable utilization. Therefore, immobilizing molecular cata...
