A collaborative team led by Professor Yang-Gang WANG from the Department of Chemistry at Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech), together with Academician Tao ZHAO, Professor Yanqiang HUANG, and Professor Wei LIU from the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics (DICP), Chinese Academy of Sciences, has, for the first time, revealed the complete pathway of oxygen spillover during catalytic processes at the atomic scale, discovering a novel oxygen migration mechanism governed by the metal-support interface. The related findings have been published in Nature.

A collaborative research team led by SUSTech has made an advancement in the field of ambient-pressure nickelate high-temperature superconductivity. The team of Qikun XUE and Zhuoyu CHEN from the State Key Laboratory of Quantum Functional Materials and the Department of Physics at Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech), the Quantum Science Center of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (QSC-GBA), and Tsinghua University, in collaboration with the Dawei SHEN team from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) and others, published their latest research results in Nature on April 8, 2026. By artificially designing atomic stacking sequences under extreme oxidative conditions, they created two new ambient-pressure high-temperature nickelate superconductors. Simultaneously, utilizing Angle-Resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy (ARPES), the research team identified the electronic band features corresponding to the superconducting state, providing experimental evidence for understanding the mechanisms of nickelate superconductivity.

At 12:12 on May 17, China celebrated a new achievement in aerospace advancement with the successful launch of the SUSTech-1 satellite. Developed by the Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech), the satellite was successfully launched aboard the Zhuque-2 Y2 rocket from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center.

The American Physical Society (APS) recently announced its 2024 class of APS Fellows.

From July 7-9, 2024, Shu-Hong YU, Dean of the College of Science, and Bin TAN, Associate Dean of the College of Science of Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech), led a delegation to visit the National University of Singapore(NUS).
