Recently, the China Insurance Institution Governance Index (CIIGI), alternatively,the Insurance Institution Governance Index of Nankai University(IIGINK), has been released by the China insurance institution governance evaluation research team, which is chaired by an associate professorat Nankai University. This index, built upon the evaluation indicator system and index model developed by the team, aims to provide a comprehensive, scientific, systematic, and quantitative displayof the governanc
A team led by Professor Zhou Qixing from Nankai University, in collaboration with several domestic institutions, has successfully designed and reported a novel and highly efficient noble metal-free bifunctional electrocatalyst for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), known as FeOCo-SAD. By adjusting the pyrolysis temperature and the inert atmosphere, they synthesized a catalyst with atomically dispersed oxygen-bridged Fe and Co dual metal dimers active sites (
A significant milestone in the research of water electrolysis for hydrogen production hasbeen made by Professor Jingshan Luo’steam from Nankai University’s College of Electronic Information and Optical Engineering, in partnership with Professor Federico Calle-Vallejo’s team from the University of the Basque Country, Spain.The collaborative teamutilized metal-support interactions to develop a high-activity hydrogen evolution catalyst in an alkaline environment. This catalyst canoperate stably at
Recently, Professor Xuewen Fus team from the Laboratory of Ultrafast Electron Microscopy at the School of Physics, Nankai University,successfully developed the worlds firstmultimodal carrier dynamics detection system that combines scanning ultrafast electron microscopy(SUEM) imaging and ultrafasttime-resolved cathodoluminescence (TRCL) detection. Under the femtosecond ultrafast electron mode, thissystem has aspatial resolution better than 10 nm and a time resolution better than 500 fs and 4.5 ps
The team led by Professor Zhao Wei of Nankai University and the team led by Professor Yu Fan of University of Health and Rehabilitation Sciencesjointly published a research paper entitled “A Novel Drug Candidate for Sepsis Targeting Heparanase by Inhibiting Cytokine Storm” in Advanced Scienceonline. This groundbreaking study offers a new treatment strategy for sepsis, a disease with one of the lowest drug development success rates worldwide, to protect the vascular endothelial barrier. Based on
Tianjin Changxing Energy Storage Technology Co., Ltd. is one of the first companies to settle in Tiankai Higher Education Innovation Park. Changxing Energy Storage RD team is led by Chen Jun, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and vice president of Nankai University, and its core members include a number of outstanding young scientists. The team mainly conducts research on national large-scale energy storage and new energy vehicle application scenarios.The mainstream battery in th
The antennae are the primary sensory organs of insects, and can accurately perceive slight vibrations, magnetic field orientation, direction of gravity and chemical stimuli. Their perceptual sensitivity is comparable to that of human skin, and even outshine humans when it comes to some special functions. However, compared with mimicking the sensory organs of mammals, an urgent pending problem in the field of bionic electronics is how to simulate insect antenna – a highly sensitive and multi-func
Recently, the team led by Prof. Chen Shuqi and Prof. Tian Jianguo of Nankai University has made important progress in the field of bound states in the continuum (BICs) nanolaser. The team proposed full-k-space BICs by engineering the complex Fourier components of the dielectric constant of microstructure to control the Bragg scatterings, and also realized the arbitrary spatial information modulation of nanolasers intra cavity based on full-k-quasi-BICs. The related results were published in the
The team led by Prof. Liu Zhibo and Prof. Tian Jianguo of Nankai University, in collaboration with the team led by Zhang Jinying of Xi’an Jiaotong University, has made important progress in the field of optoelectronic study of strained two-dimensional materials. The strong flexo-photovoltaic effect in violet phosphorene nanosheets was successfully induced by applying strain usingthe boron nitride nano-edges. The related results were published in the top international journal ACS Nano, entitled “
Recently, the latest research progress made by the team of Xiaodan Zhang and YingZhao, professors at Nankai University’s State Key Laboratory of Photovoltaic Materials and Cells, in the field of artificial photosynthesis based on solar cells, was published in Joule, a world-renowned academic journal. Based on the solar cell-driven carbon dioxide electrochemical reduction system, the team achieved record energy conversion efficiency of 14.3% for solar-to-formate.The rapid deactivation resulting f
Recently, the team led by Professor Chen Shuqi and Professor Cheng Hua from Nankai University has made important progress in breaking the mirror symmetry of sound vortex transmission. Based on the orbital angular momentum (OAM) diffraction law of acoustic phase gradient metagratings (PGM), a new mechanism for transmission phase control is put forward, and a single metasurface is used to break the mirror symmetry of sound vortex transmission in a reciprocal acoustic system for the first time. The
Collective cells are an important active mattersystem, and their ordered migration plays a key role in life processes such as embryonic development, tissue morphogenesis, and cancer invasion. Under normal physiological conditions, collective cells are often in a confined spatial environment, which regulate the dynamic spatiotemporal evolution of collective cell behavior from thetop down, thusaffectingthe differentiation and fate of cell tissues. Nowadays, emerging technologies represented by pho
