11© 2017 Macmillan Publishers Limited, part of Springer Nature. All rights reserved.Metal-organic frameworks are crystalline porous materials with designable topology, porosity and functionality, having promising applications in gas storage and separation, ion conduction and catalysis. It is challenging to observe MOFs with transmission electron microscopy due to the extreme instability of MOFs upon electron beam irradiation. Here, we use a direct-detection electron-counting camera to acquire TEM …Read more

8© 2015. American Geophysical Union. All Rights Reserved. We have carried out an archaeomagnetic study on a late Neolithic locality in Sichuan, southwestern China. We pull together various dating techniques, including radiocarbon analysis, optically stimulated luminescence dating, stratigraphic information as well as archaeological and archaeomagnetic estimations, to constrain the age of the studied samples. Rock magnetic results indicate thermally stable fine-grained magnetite or titanomagnetite…Read more

6In this study, we have carried out paleointensity experiments on 918 specimens spanning the last ~7 kyr, including pottery fragments, baked clay and slag, collected from Shandong, Liaoning, Zhejiang and Hebei Provinces in China. Approximately half of the specimens yielded results that passed strict data selection criteria and give high-fidelity paleointensities. The virtual axial dipole moments of our sites range from ~2×1022 to ~13×1022 Am2. At ~2250 BCE our results suggest a paleointensity low…Read more
