The “Workshop on Free Radicals and Paramagnetic Materials” and the Delivery Ceremony of the 200th Globally Installed EPR Instrument by CIQTEK were successfully held at Ningbo University on February 17th. Renowned experts and scholars from domestic and international universities and research institutes gathered to discuss the latest developments in the research field of free radicals and paramagnetic materials and witnessed a significant milestone in EPR technology by CIQTEK. As a significant part of the event, CIQTEK officially delivered the EPR300 X-band Continuous Wave Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) spectrometer to the Institute of New Drug Technology at Ningbo University. This marks the 200th installation of the EPR spectrometer by CIQTEK worldwide. This milestone signifies the continuous breakthroughs…

Scanning Electron Microscopes (SEMs) have revolutionized how scientists, engineers, and researchers analyze materials at the microscopic level. Whether you’re working in materials science, biology, or nanotechnology, the right SEM can provide the detailed imaging and analysis needed to advance your research. If you’re in Canada and looking to invest in an SEM for your laboratory, this guide will help you navigate the options and make an informed decision. 1. Understand Your Needs: What Will You Be Analyzing? Before diving into specifications and brands, it’s important to understand your laboratory’s specific needs. What type of materials will you be analyzing? Are you working with biological…

Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) spectroscopy has become an essential tool in the study of transition metal complexes. This technique, capable of providing detailed insights into the electronic structures and dynamic behavior of paramagnetic species, has made significant strides in recent years. EPR is particularly valuable in studying transition metal ions, which play crucial roles in a wide array of chemical, biological, and industrial processes. Recent research has pushed the boundaries of EPR, allowing scientists to unravel new complexities in these systems. This article explores some of the most recent and impactful case studies in the field, highlighting the critical role of EPR…

This year, the ARPE days are moving to Bordeaux! On March 18 and 19, 2025, they will be relocated to the Pessac campus’s IECB (European Institute of Chemistry and Biology). The scientific days will be an opportunity for oral presentations by occasional users and experts in EPR Spectrometer from academia or industry. Representatives of CIQTEK will deliver a 15-minute speech in the lecture hall. At the same time, we will also bring EPR200m On-site demonstration and provide sample testing. Meet us at Institut Européen de Chimie et Biologie (IECB) Date: March 18–19, 2025 Location: 2 Rue Robert Escarpit, 33600 Pessac, Bordeaux, French 

When the image of Ne Zha, riding a fire-spouting wheel and wielding a fiery spear, appeared on the big screen, this ancient mythological character was given new vitality. “Ne Zha” is not only a successful animated film but also an epitome of the perfect fusion of Chinese traditional culture and modern technology. The film’s stunning special effects showcase the immense power of digital technology in the cultural and creative industries. In the real world, companies like CIQTEK, with their independently developed precision measurement instruments, are writing a new chapter in China’s technological innovation. From cultural confidence to technological self-strength, China is…

Recently, a research paper titled “Phononic modulation of spin-lattice relaxation in molecular qubit frameworks” by the research team led by Sun Lei from the School of Science at Westlake University was published in Nature Communications. Figure 1: Hydrogen bonding network and phonon modulation of spin-lattice relaxation in MQFs The team used CIQTEK pulsed Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) Spectroscopy X-band EPR100 and W-band EPR-W900 to characterize two molecular qubit framework materials containing semi-quinone radicals. Figure 2: Spin dynamic properties of MgHOTP and TiHOTP They discovered that hydrogen bonding networks in these materials led to decreased structural rigidity, resulting in sub-terahertz optical phonons, reduced Debye temperature, increased acoustic phonon density of states,…
