On April 7, 2021, my paper “Pyrolyzed Chitin Nanofiber Paper as a Three-Dimensional Porous and Defective Nanocarbon for Optical Sensing and Energy Storage Applications” was published in Volume 9, Number 13 of Journal of Materials Chemistry C as hot paper with outside front cover!
L. Zhu, Y. Huang, Y. Morishita, K. Uetani, M. Nogi, H. Koga*, Journal of Materials Chemistry C, 9, 4444-4452 (2021)

This work was reported by lots of international media, including EurekAlert! (US), Phys.org (UK), Mirage News (Australia), pplware (Portugal) and The Science Times.
