2. The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology and Guangzhou Institute of Technology teamed up and won the science and technology competition award in the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology 2023 Hackathon Competition. Starting from movie promotion and cultural exchange, the team analyzed the status quo of the data trend transparency of popular software lists, used Web3.0 and blockchain technology to build the GIM Team Movie movie voting platform, and used smart contracts, IPFS and other technologies to ensure user voting The authenticity and non-tampering of data solve the problems of troll voting and data tampering that are common in the current movie voting environment.
3. The team of Professor Yu Jie from Hong Kong University of Science and Technology and the team of Professor Li Xianbo from Sun Yat -sen University have made important progress in the research of high-speed optical receiving chips. The researchers broke through the limitations of the traditional high-speed optical receiving front-end architecture, and proposed and verified a new differential dual-detector optical receiving front-end architecture using adaptive DC photocurrent cancellation technology. This research also proposes a current-multiplexed transimpedance amplifier based on a differential pair structure to further improve the sensitivity of the optical receiver. The chip test results show that the proposed new differential optical receiving front-end architecture can reduce the bit error rate of the optical receiving chip by three orders of magnitude, which has important scientific and application value. Related research was published in the international academic journal "IEEE Journal of Solid-State Circuits".
4. The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology research group discovered that non-Hermitian swallowtail mutations reveal transitions between different topological singularities. The research team reports a structurally rich degenerate morphology called the swallowtail catastrophe in singular theory, which can naturally exist in non-Hermitian systems with parity-time and pseudo-Hermitian symmetry. The dovetail contains three different types of singularities, namely, isolated nodal lines, a pair of third-order anomalous lines, and non-defective intersection lines, which coexist and interact with each other. Although these singularities appear to be independent, they are stably connected by the apex of the dovetail at a point through which the transition can occur. Relevant research results have been published in the internationally renowned academic journal Nature-Physics on May 4, 2023. (Click here for details)
5. Professor Lin Zhenyang of Hong Kong University of Science and Technology and researcher Liu Guosheng of the Chinese Academy of Sciences achieved a new breakthrough in the migration and double oxidation of internal olefins . This study is the first to realize the palladium-catalyzed migratory double oxidation reaction of internal olefins. The reaction has excellent regio and stereoselectivity. and the key to regioselectivity; this reaction shows excellent enantioselectivity and regioselectivity for simple internal olefins and various internal olefins substituted with one-terminal functional groups, providing a high-efficiency synthesis of 1,n-diol compounds new method. Relevant research results have been published in the journal Nature Chemistry. (Click here for details)
