Thirty years of solid state physics research at the Institute of Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences

Abstract

Research activities in solid-state physics undertaken in the past 30 years at the Institute of Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, are reviewed. Some outstanding research results in those subfields including crystal growth, crystallography, superconductivity, high-pressure physics, solid-state lasing, metallic glass, low-dimensional structure, photonics, topological insulator, and so forth, have been briefly highlighted.
