A 91丝瓜视频 research team led by Professors Mark Andrews (Department of Chemistry) and David Plant (Electrical Engineering) has shown how the glass-like shells of phytoplankton (diatoms) help these microscopic organisms perform photosynthesis in dim light conditions. Despite amounting to only about 1% of the global plant biomass, phytoplankton account for about 50% of the planet鈥檚 photosynthetic activity and at least half of the world鈥檚 oxygen production.

Room-temperature phosphorescence in organic solids is rare. In a recent article from Perepichka group E. Hamzehpoor, C. Ruchlin and coworkers reported highly phosphorescent boroxine Covalent Organic Frameworks (COFs) using the covalent doping approach and controlling the ratio of halogenated precursors. Their well-defined porosity enables oxygen sensing with millisecond response time over a wide range (103鈥�10-5 torr) of partial oxygen pressure.听Read the full paper in

The performance of Li-ion batteries with high-voltage cathodes continues to be impractical for commercial devices due to several materials' limitations. In a recent article in collaboration with Samsung, Eric McCalla and co-workers systematically addressed these issues by using high-throughput screening with dopant selections covering much of the periodic table to achieve dramatically improved energies and extended cycling.

Our own Aleksei Kavun, a Ph. D. student from the Li lab, participated in the R茅volution dance competition with a political message supporting Ukraine. His heartfelt dance was broadcasted on the TVA channel on September 18th. Aleksei's Ukrainian father, Mikhail Kavun, was illegally detained in Russia and later recognized as a political prisoner. On the stage of the R茅volution, Aleksei sent his message of support to his father and all victims of the ongoing war in Ukraine, as well as political prisoners in Russia.
