We report on a compact all-polarization-maintaining 2.05-μm chirped pulse fiber amplifier system emitting pulses at up to 1-MW peak power level at 371-fs pulse duration. The seed pulse repetition rate provided by an inhouse-built oscillator is reduced to around 1 MHz using a pulse picker. In combination with a two stage fiber amplifier, output pulse energies up to 570 nJ are obtained without the need of a high-power large-mode area amplifier. Both temporal stretching and compression of the chirped pulse amplifier design are achieved using a single chirped volume Bragg grating.

Vanadium flow battery (VFB) promises a route for achieving grid-scale power storage by harnessing renewable energy sources. However, the sluggish reaction kinetics of vanadium redox couples and serious hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) still restrict the further development of VFB. Addressing these challenges requires not only effective solutions but also ones that are cost-efficient and scalable to meet the demands of affordable energy storage.

Curvature-induced interfacial electric field effects and local strain engineering offer a powerful approach for optimizing the intrinsic catalytic activity of single-atom catalysts (SACs). Investigations into the surface curvature on SACs are still ongoing, and the impact of the concave surface is often overlooked. In this work, theoretical calculations indicate that curved surfaces, particularly those with concavity, can optimize the electronic structures of single Fe sites and facilitate the reductive release of *OH.

A 110 GHz quasi-optical ring resonator, designed for use with a 1 MW pulsed gyrotron, has been built and successfully tested using a 100 mW solid-state source. A low reflectance (2.4%) input coupler and a low-loss, four-mirror ring demonstrated a compression ratio, defined as the ratio of output to input power, of 36.

Constructing dual-site catalysts consisting of atomically dispersed metal single atoms and metal atomic clusters (MACs) is a promising approach to further boost the catalytic activity for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). Herein, a porous Co@SNC featuring the coexistence of Co single-atom sites (CoN) and S-coordinated Co atomic clusters (SCo) in S, N co-doped carbon substrate is successfully synthesized by using porphyrinic metal-organic framework (Co-TPyP MOF) as the precursor. The introduction of the sulfur source creates abundant microstructural defects to anchor Co metal clusters, thus modulating the electronic structure of its surrounding carbon substrate.
