Recently, Professor Chuang-Chuang Li’s group from the Department of Chemistry at the Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech) first reported a type II intramolecular (3+2) dipolar cycloaddition reaction for the syntheses of various bridged bicyclo[m.n.2] ring systems. This method was used as a key step accomplishment of asymmetric total synthesis of natural product nakafuran-8. The computational study was carried out to explore the regioselectivity, chemoselectivity, and diastereoselectivity of type II (3+2) cycloaddition.

Recently, Associate Professor Junhao Lin’s research group from the Department of Physics at the Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech) has published their researches about the large-scale lossless lattice characterization of water-oxygen sensitive 2D materials in Advanced Science. Their paper was entitled “Direct Visualization of large-scale Intrinsic Atomic Lattice Structure and Its Collective Anisotropy in Air-sensitive Monolayer 1T’-WTe2.”

Recently, Professor Hai-Zhou Lu’s group from the Shenzhen Institute for Quantum Science and Engineering (SIQSE) and the Department of Physics at the Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech) published two papers about progress in the quantum theory of the nonlinear Hall effect.

Recently, Professor Feng He’s group from the Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech) made advances in device architecture, polymer photovoltaic materials, and the interface engineering of Organic Solar Cells (OSCs). Several high-quality papers were published in renowned journals such as Advanced Materials, Advanced Functional Materials, and Joule, boosting the development of OSCs.

Recently, Professor Hai-Zhou Lu’s group from the Department of Physics at the Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech) published two works in Physical Review Letters (PRL). Their papers, entitled “Theory for Magnetic-Field-Driven 3D Metal-Insulator Transitions in the Quantum Limit” and “Field-tunable one-sided higher-order topological hinge states in Dirac semimetals,” goes into detail on progress made in magnetic-field-driven 3D metal-insulator transitions and higher-order topological insulators.

Recently, Professor Chuang-Chaung Li’s group from the Department of Chemistry at the Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech) published a review article in the academic journal Chemical Society Reviews, entitled “Synthesis of natural products containing highly strained trans-fused bicyclo[3.3.0]octane: historical overview and future prospects.”
