A simple, yet effective, method to increase the yield of gel chromatography separation of single-chirality carbon nanotubes
Preparing high-concentration individualized carbon nanotubes for industrial separation of multiple single-chirality species-Nature Communications
Large-scale production of single-chirality carbon nanotubes has long been a major challenge. Liu et al. report a simple, yet effective method to incre....
Generation and Decoding Colored Beams Carrying Orbital Angular Momentum
By nanoscale 3D printing, we produced miniaturized optical components processing information in the color and orbital angular momentum of beamlets using only light from a lamp. These colored vortex beams from incoherent white light promise anticounterfeiting through pairwise optical authentication.
