Quantum matter and devices team receives Shenzhen Youth May Fourth Medal
A SUSTech physics team whose leaders include Liyuan Zhang and Hai-Zhou Lu received the collective medal in 2022.
On 4 May, SUSTech reported that the Shenzhen committee of the Communist Youth League and the Shenzhen Youth Federation had awarded a collective medal to the team studying novel quantum states and developing quantum devices. The university named Hai-Zhou Lu and Liyuan Zhang among the team's leaders.
The university's account highlighted two approaches to the three-dimensional quantum Hall effect. Lu and collaborators investigated a mechanism involving Fermi arcs, while Zhang and collaborators studied the Hall response experimentally through transport measurements.
