| 主讲人简介: |
Prof. Kam Tuen Law is a Professor at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. He received his BSc degree from HKUST in 2003 and completed his PhD degree at Brown University in 2008. He then worked as a Croucher Postdoctoral Fellow at MIT with Prof. Patrick Lee. He joined HKUST as an assistant Professor in 2011. Prof. Law did pioneer works on the study of Majorana fermions in topological superconductors, including predicting the quantized tunnelling conductance and spin-selective Andreev reflections induced by Majorana fermions. He co-discovered Ising superconductivity in transition metal dichalcogenides with two experimental groups in 2015 and has since uncovered many novel properties of Ising superconductors theoretically. Recently, he predicted new classes of materials called Kramers nodal line metals and spin-orbit-parity-coupled superconductors. Many of his theoretical predictions were verified experimentally. Prof. Law received the Croucher Innovation Award in 2015 and the Achievement in Asia Award by the International Organization of Chinese Physicists and Astronomers in 2024. He is a Hong Kong Research Grants Council Research Fellow (2020) and the Founding President (2018-2021) of the Hong Kong Young Academy of Sciences.
