Highly Efficient Quantum Sieving in Porous Graphene-like Carbon Nitride for Light Isotopes Separation
Light isotopes separation, such as 3 He/ 4 He, H 2 /D 2 , H 2 /T 2, etc ., is crucial for various advanced technologies including isotope labeling, nuclear weapons, cryogenics and power generation. However, their nearly identical chemical properties made the separation challenging. The low productiv...
