Porous structured zeolite material used as molecular sieve
Zeolitic aluminophosphate, a microporous 3D material, with an average pore size of ~ 0.38 nm, is used in molecular rails separating CO2. The CO / CH4 separation for pre-flammable processes is of concern in environmental protection and energy efficiency. The zeolitic aluminophosphate membrane is synthesized by an environmentally friendly method using a low cost kaoline foam substrate, with high CO2 / CH4 separation efficiency.

Photoluminescent nanomaterials applied to mciroLED lamps emit white light
Quantum dots perovskite and hexaflouride are used in white light emitting diodes. The hexaflouride material with a size of about 150 nm, well dispersed in isopropanol solvent, absorbs light from UV to blue (450 nm) and high intensity red (630 nm) light (Figure 2). . Quantum dots perovskite CsPb (Cl, Br, I) 3 with size about 3 nm, absorbs light well from UV to 500 nm, fluorescence with different colors blue, green and red.

InGaN components are microscopic in nanowire structure
LED lights are considered as the lighting technology of the 21st century due to low energy consumption, less heat generation and environmental friendliness. Display technology using 10-100 µm LED display technology (microLED display) will be the next display technology of LCD and OLED displays. Technology using microLED displays has many advantages such as high color rendering (Color Rendering Index), ultra-wide viewing angle, fast response time, high brightness and long life. Full color and white light emitting LEDs are based on the InGaN (shell) / AlGaN (core) nanofiber structure, developed on a silicon substrate using the plasma-assisted Molecular Beam Epitaxy method. Figure 3 shows the luminous spectrum of a 50 µm nanoscale structure LED.
