Recently, Dapeng Yu’s group (Institute for Quantum Science and Engineering, Southern University of Science and Technology) and Xiong-Jun Liu’s group (ICQM Peking University), together with Jiangong You’s group (Chern Institute of Mathematics, Nankai University) proposed a class of exactly solvable quasiperiodic mosaic models to realize mobility edges (MEs) which can be arbitrary even number in the energy spectra, depending on the parameter.

The biological study of highly strained natural products with significant phytotoxic, antibiotic, and apoptotic activity and anticancer function has been a major challenge for decades due to its natural scarcity. Recently, SUSTech Prof. LI Chuang-Chuang’s group at Department of Chemistry achieved the first total synthesis of a rare and highly strained natural product

As the study on the 3D quantum Hall effect marches forward, physicists feel puzzled by the new findings. Recently, SUSTech research team proposed a new theory to answer the questions.

Recently, a team led by Jiaqing He (Chair Professor of Physics, SUSTech) successfully introduced the 2D Van der waals defects into the eco-friendly SnTe-based thermoelectric (TE) materials for the first time to enhance the average ZT value, which shed light for future studies on SnTe and other intermediate-temperature bulk TE materials. The results, entitled as “Constructing van der Waals gaps in cubic-structured SnTe-based thermoelectric materials,” have been published in one of the most famous international journals Energy & Environmental Science.

Recently, a team led by Prof. Kaijun Liu (Earth and Space Sciences, SUSTech) made significant progress in the excitation of oxygen ion cyclotron harmonic waves in the inner magnetosphere. The results have been published in Geophysical Research Letters, one of the top journals in space physics.

Recently, the team of Professor Haiping Xia, the Chair Professor of Department of Chemistry and executive director of Shenzhen Grubbs Institute, published a review article in Chemical Reviews, a high-impact international journal, entitled “Metallaaromatic Chemistry: History and Development.” It is the first time for the scientists to review the research progress and future direction of the metallaaromatic chemistry in this journal for the past two decades.
