We collaborated with Prof. Meng GU (Southern University of Science and Technology, Shenzhen) to devise a facile method to fabricate three-element (or ternary) chiral nanoparticles (CNPs) by combining galvanic replacement reactions with a three-step layer-by-layer GLAD. This work was published in the renowned journal Advanced Science (Adv. Sci. 2020, 2001321; https://doi.org/10.1002/advs.202001321).

Dr. Huang and Mr. Jeff Lau were invited to a luncheon hosted by Mrs Carrie Lam, the Chief Executive of HKSAR, on 24 May 2019 (Friday) to celebrate the excellent performance of the teams in the local universities, research and development centres as well as local enterprises at various renowned regional and international competitions on innovation and technology.
PhD: Applicants are expected to have academic background of Chemistry, Physics, or Material Science and Engineering.
Postdoc: two openings, one for surface-enhanced Raman optical activity (SEROA), and another for heterogenous asymmetric (photo)catalysis. Applicants, who work on surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), optical activity spectroscopy, fabrication of chiral nanostructures, and/or chiral MOF, are preferential. Applicants can also apply PFS (https://www.ugc.edu.hk/eng/rgc/funding_opport/pdfs/) through HKBU (internal deadline: Sep. 24, 2021)
