One of the most jam-packed weekends in a while. A poster presentation and a proposal, both within 24hrs. Definitely felt privileged to present my "findings" on both occasions and luckily, they all went well!

Gold Quantum Rods Emit in the Shortwave Infrared (1000–2200 nm) with 104–5 M–1 cm–1 Ultrabrightness | Journal of the American Chemical Society pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja… Infrared emitting Au rods?!? WOWWWW

@YanfengChen_IAM Yes indeed😂

@Pinzheng1 Wow! It's been a while! Welcome back

share.google/904ZjtGxrd1VqN… To be honest, I find more loopholes in this paper than it's outcomes. The apparent lack of in-situ absorption data and using speed cameras are really odd. I don't think I am the only one who is unimpressed with this work. Thought? Btw, I'm back 😂

Hot (a cold comment) take, I believe this work is overinflated. By rigor standards, this work is at most suitable for Nat. Comm. The lack of transparency of peer reviews, a standard practice of Nature journals and the 2.5 year edit duration raises many questions.

Perovskite semiconductors CsPbX3 can simply be melt-cast in a conventional chemical laboratory, yielding inexpensive and excellent X-ray detector arrays. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Recent highlight by #SoCaltech on my accessible educational resources for photochemistry and spectroscopy! I hope more folks share their expertise freely, and take knowledge that is normally transferred 1-on-1 from mentor to mentee and make it accessible. magazine.caltech.edu/post/socaltech…
