More effective control over the fabrication of semiconductors using nanomaterials for various applications to enhance global sustainability is the principal aim behind an exciting project that has helped earn Professor Zhang Hua of CityUHK a highly prestigious Croucher Senior Research Fellowship.
Three research projects by CityUHK outstanding scholars have been awarded funding under the 2024/25 NSFC and RGC Collaborative Research Scheme, amounting to over HK$8.8 million. The number of funded projects for this exercise at CityUHK was tied for the highest in Hong Kong. Additionally, five CityUHK scholars have been awarded funding from the 2024/25 NSFC/RGC Joint Research Scheme, with total funding exceeding HK$6 million.
A new fabrication technique for substantially enhancing the prospects of commercialising perovskite solar cells through improved stability, reliability, efficiency and affordability is underway at CityUHK.
Researchers from CityUHK, in collaboration with experts from local and overseas universities, have reshaped scientists’ fundamental understanding on the kinetic processes in crystalline materials, throwing lights on new approaches for materials processing and microstructure tailoring.
Thirty-two outstanding scientists from CityUHK have been awarded funding from the National Nature Science Foundation of China for 2024.
Researchers at CityUHK debuted four projects at the Silicon Valley International Invention Festival 2024 and achieved outstanding results, winning five awards, including one Semi-Grand Prix and four Gold Medals.
CityUHK research team addressed a challenge for scientists for over a decade with creative material science solutions. The team demonstrated an effective strategy to enhance the long-term stability of perovskite-organic tandem solar cells, which can be mass-produced at a speed comparable to newspaper printing, with a daily output of up to 1,000 solar panels.
Researchers from CityUHK and Peking University have successfully achieved the direct measurement and simulation of the nanoscale superlubricity behaviour of a 2D water/ice on graphene sheet.
Five research projects from CityUHK were granted funds from the HKSAR Government’s RAISe+ Scheme. This demonstrates CityUHK’s commitment to promoting excellence in high-quality research and innovation, driving the transformation of the University’s world-class scientific research into applications, thereby creating commercial and social value.
