Finally, I finished my project about this review article "Spintronic memristors for computing" and published it in npj Spintronics! Full text here: nature.com/articles/s4430…. I appreciate the effort of the co-authors and my students.

Our ECE department is recruiting research assistant professors globally. If you are interested in this opportunity, do not miss the deadline (Feb 19): hrmsxprod.psft.ust.hk:8044/psc/hrmsxprod/…

(3/3) The topological surface states and chiral edge states in magnetic topological insulator Hall devices lead to efficient write and read, respectively. For details, read the full Nat Mater paper here: rdcu.be/d7EtQ or check out this webpage: nature.com/articles/s4156…

(2/3) The huge delay is due to the long physical distance between the room-temperature GPU and the mK quantum processor. We are excited to show in our Nature Materials paper today that we can put an AI accelerator for quantum control at cryogenic temperatures (2 K for our case).

(1/3) Machine learning for quantum computing has been a very important and relevant topic. Machine learning algorithms have been used to do quantum control and error correction. In these experiments, the delay between the AI agent and the quantum processor is huge.

The tutorial and short course program at IEEE EDTM 2025 is a fantastic opportunity for anyone looking to expand their knowledge and skills in emerging technologies. We have a diverse range of topics covered by industry experts and leading academics: edtm2025.com/tutorials/

@ieee_iedm 24 has been another fruitful trip for me. Very happy to have @hkust ECE Dept HKUST alumni gathering at the event! Also, I am excited to see two of my students giving excellent presentations Zhihua and Kun. Look forward to next year's event!

@hkust ECE students and colleagues are heading to @ieee_iedm. Our department is contributing to the advancement of electronic device technology, and so do our excellent alumni. We welcome our alumni to join the gathering by registering via the link inside: ece.hkust.edu.hk/news/hkust-ece…

We celebrate the 100-year anniversary of the conception of field-effect transistor (FET) by finishing the Oxfam trailerwalker 100 km event in 44 hours and 13 minutes despite the heavy rain and muddy trails. We are proud of our team: event.oxfamtrailwalker.org.hk/en/Donation/Pa…

[ HKUST Congregation 2024 Conferring Honorary Doctoral Degrees on Four Distinguished Leaders ] #HKUST held its Congregation 2024 today (November 23). The occasion witnessed the conferment of Honorary Doctorates upon four prominent and distinguished leaders by HKUST Pro-Chancellor Dr. John CHAN Cho-Chak, in recognition of their remarkable accomplishments and contributions. Also joining the ceremony included HKUST Council Chairman Prof. Harry SHUM, HKUST President Prof. Nancy IP, and other members of the senior management team. This year’s recipients of the Honorary Doctorate, listed in alphabetical order of surnames, were: Dr. Jensen HUANG, Founder and CEO of NVIDIA – Doctor of Engineering honoris causa Mr. Tony LEUNG Chiu-Wai, the Golden Lion-winning actor – Doctor of Humanities honoris causa Prof. Michael LEVITT, the awardee of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2013 – Doctor of Science honoris causa Prof. David MUMFORD, a Fields Medalist – Doctor of Science honoris causa Upon the graduation of the Class of 2024, HKUST’s global alumni community has reached the milestone of over 100,000 members, forming an esteemed network worldwide. This year, HKUST conferred a total of 6,029 academic degrees, including 2,430 bachelor’s degrees, 3,177 master’s degrees, and 422 doctoral degrees. Marking the same occasion, Prof. Ip also presented the Michael G. Gale Medal for Distinguished Teaching – HKUST’s highest accolade in teaching, to Prof. Frederick FONG Tsz-Ho of the Department of Mathematics, School of Science in recognition of his outstanding service in education. Following the conferment ceremony, HKUST Council Chairman and renowned AI expert Prof. Shum chaired an enlightening fireside chat session entitled “Technology, Leadership, and Entrepreneurship” with one of the Honorary Doctors, Dr. Huang. The pair engaged in a dynamic and interactive exchange with the HKUST community on a future with AI. Dr. Huang, who learnt of HKUST’s plan to build a medical school, said he hoped the university would leverage its expertise in technology, computer science and AI to create something different from other existing medical schools. Dr. Huang later visited the “Innovation Showcase”, where he interacted with senior management and faculty members to explore the University’s achievements in AI-related research.

Best way to understand more about our postgraduate programs (PhD and MPhil in ECE) 😀

A recent study, done by Profs. Wei Zhang and Benedetta Flebus from UNC Chapel Hill and Boston College, has shown the great potential of using magnons to help with long-distance communications. See the full comment here: nature.com/articles/s4430…

@DamienQuerlioz Precisely summarize what I want to say

Amazing! And this prize highlights the deep connections between neural networks and physics that continue beyond Hopfield networks and Boltzmann machines

(2/2) Key Highlights: 1. Spintronics offers a new dimension with its spin-based functionality and thus opportunities in new applications. 2. Emphasis on developing foundation cells for scalable circuit design. 3. Co-design methodologies to enhance integration and performance.

(1/2) I'm thrilled to share Kevin, Jianshi, and my latest commentary: "Spintronic Foundation Cells for Large-Scale Integration." We propose a holistic co-design methodology to effectively integrate spintronic devices into silicon platforms. Read more here: rdcu.be/dVGOu
