Other Information
At present, the laboratory has been established (relevant nanometer micro-processing technology laboratory and precision electronic measurement equipment available), and large professional equipment place and to be placed include: 1) Oxford （TESPT14T50） liquid helium magnetic body low-temperature system（14 Tesla magnetic body, helium III refrigeration, kelvinox diluting refrigerator）；2) FEI nano 450 high-resolution electronic microscope (configured with NPGS electronic bundle exposure system, EDX composition analysis system); 3)TI ultra-high vacuum electronic bundle sedimentation system (DE400)；4) Semi-conduct parameter probe sets; 5) oxygen-free glove box; 6) CVD grapheme growing furnace; 7) critical point drying instrument. According to working needs of the laboratory, post-doctoral is recruited home and abroad (with annual salary minimum 220 thousand (including government subsidy of 120 thousand yuan by the government) and research assistant (quasi-postgraduate and doctoral student, to be jointly trained by Hong Kong University of Science and Technology). We also welcome experts and classmates with outstanding performance and specialty to come to our research teams.
