An article about "quantum resonances near absolute zero" published in Science by SUSTech chemists

2020-05-09

Two recent advances in“quantum resonances near absolute zero," have sought to prove quantum mechanics in atomic and molecular collisions through experimentation, especially at temperatures near absolute zero Kelvin (K). Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech) chemists have provided their viewpoint on these ground-breaking achievements.

Researchers gain new insights into the origin of chiral molecular selectivity

2020-05-08

Recent research led by Department of Chemistry, Southern University of Science and Technology has possibly solved a long-held question that has thwarted chemists for generations: Where did the first molecule with chiral selectivity come from?

A novel RNA interference mechanism dictates plant response to external stress

2020-04-30

The understanding of how RNA interference works in conjunction with the stress response is improved with the research led by Chair Professor Hongwei Guo (Biology). The research is published on Nature (IF = 43.07).

Could Star Wars holograms become a reality?

2020-04-21

Science fiction is one step closer to reality following new research from Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech) that could ultimately see three-dimensional holograms in every person’s home.

Solar cells to become more efficient with 3D interpenetrated acceptor, following SUSTech-led research

2020-04-13

Organic solar cells are becoming increasingly efficient, and new developments by researchers at Department of Chemistry, Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech) has seen a significant step forward in that area.

SUSTech researchers find unique function for light-based growth-promoting protein

2020-04-10

Light is not only the ultimate source of energy but is also one of the most critical environmental signals for plants. Plants must balance their need to grow with their need to survive through a variety of regulatory mechanisms, and research led by SUSTech scholars could indicate the role of a specific protein, called HY5 (Elongated Hypocotyls-5).
