Physics is one of the oldest disciplines of natural science based on experiments, which involves the studies of motions of objects ranging from subatomic to cosmic levels, and the exploring of interactions and transformations of substances. It keeps developing as human explores the Nature. Until the 17th century, the Newtonian mechanics had been established, and the laws of motion of various objects including celestial bodies were well understood. In the late 19th century, physics became a systematic and rigorous discipline that contains mechanics, thermodynamics, electromagnetism, optics, etc., known as classic physics nowadays. The modern physics was developed at the beginning of the 20th century with the establishment of relativity and quantum mechanics. Significant breakthroughs in exploring the fundamental structure of the universe were made that greatly facilitated the development of technology and pushed forward the frontier of human cognition. However, the exploration of nature is far from complete. Many fundamental problems were still not being solved, such as the motion law of celestial objects in cosmic level, a more fundamental structure of elementary particles, and the physics laws of complex and strongly correlated macroscopic materials.
Physics is closely related to many other natural science disciplines. It has been a driving force to various of subjects including mathematics, chemistry, biology, geology, materials science, and information science. In addition, physics also makes great contributions to the revolutions of new technology arising from the theoretical breakthroughs, including nuclear energy, semiconductor, superconductor, laser, aerospace industry, etc. In short, physics plays a very important role in our economy and daily life. Progresses in areas such as fusion energy, novel semiconductor materials, high temperature superconductivity, nanomaterials and quantum information are expected in the foreseeable future, and these progresses will lead to the developments of many other new areas of science and technology.
Physics Department at Southern University of Science and Technology, was established in 2011. It is one of the five earliest departments in SUSTech. At present, its research fields include quantum transport and regulation, surface physics, materials physics, computational physics, condensed matter theory, quantum information and quantum computation, high energy physics and astrophysics (in planning), etc.
