Our recent research work has been selected as the Front Cover of the Inaugural Issue of Interdisciplinary Materials. Liquid gating membrane is a new kind of structural materials, response to an applied force as a pressure-driven system. To address the long-term high consumption caused by traditional “experimental trial method”, a machine learning algorithm is trained to effectively integrate material structure, composition and performance. This cover shows machine learning technology, offers a promising approach to exchange negligible machine resources for valuable researcher time, thus accelerating and optimizing the development of liquid gating technology.See details: Click here.

Our recent research work has been selected as the Inside Front Cover of Advanced Materials. Liquid-gating technology is attracting increasing attention for the delivery of some brand-new properties for real-world applications. In article number 2107327, we report a self-driven smart liquid-gating system, developed by designing a liquid-gating magnetoelastic porous membrane with reversible meniscus-shaped deformations. This system provides a universal and convenient way to realize active regulation of gas/liquid release. The illustrated visible gas/liquid-mixture content monitoring showcases one example of the application of the reported material.See details: Click here.

On Sept 30th 2018, the kickoff meeting of National Key R&D program “Nano Science and Technology”chaired by Prof. Xu Hou was held successfully in Xiamen University. In this meeting, the project team, school officials and invited consultant committee members including the CAS academicians Prof. Zhongqun Tian, Yong Tang, Prof Wenjie Shen etc. met for the official opening of this project and to discuss the general project structure and information. Prof Xu Hou presented technical content of the project. He outlined the main objectives of the project is to take use of the joule effect of carbon nanotubes composite membranes to create efficient, durable and energy-saving desalineation technologies. The project team believe this project would positively impact the desalineation field and provide a “tool” promoting “Blue Economy” to exploit the economic possibilities of the sea, while keeping environmental interests in balance by creating energy-efficient and durable techniques.
