    Researchers Develop New Strategy to Improve Spray-Coated Perovskite Device Performance

    A research team proposes a confined crystallization strategy, in which the crystallization pathway during spray coating is reconstructed at the source through solvation structure regulation. Specifically, a localized high-concentration (LHC) precursor system is established within individual spray droplets, enabling precise control over nucleation behavior during film formation. Metal halide perovskites are promising for next-generation high-efficiency photovoltaic and optoelectronic devices due to excellent optoelectronic properties and solution processability. Recent fabrication techniques (such as spin coating, blade c...

    Researchers Develop AI-Powered "Digital Colony Picker" to Accelerate Discovery of High-Performing Microbes

    A research team invented a fully automated “Digital Colony Picker” (DCP) that spots and retrieves best-performing microbial clones by reading how they grow and what they produce at the same time—without plates, needles, or manual picking. The work appeared online on October 10 in Nature Communications. A research team from the Qingdao Institute of Bioenergy and Bioprocess Technology (QIBEBT) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, has developed a fully automated "Digital Colony Picker" (DCP). This device identifies and retrieves high-performance mic...

    Researchers Identify Key Regulator for Microalgae's Low-CO2 Adaptationpture

    Recently, researchers at the Single-Cell Center, Qingdao Institute of Bioenergy and Bioprocess Technology (QIBEBT), Chinese Academy of Sciences, identified a histone modification as the key regulator of this low-CO2 adaptation. Their findings were published in in Plant Communications on Sep. 25 (DOI: 10.1016/j.xplc.2025.101534). Marine microalgae are vital drivers of Earth's carbon cycle, contributing approximately half of the planet's global primary production and sequestering tens of gigatons of carbon annually through photosynthesis. To survive and thrive in seawater w...
