We are thrilled to announce that Prof. Shien-Ping Feng has been selected as one of the recipients of the College Research Impact Award 2026 by the College of Engineering (CENG). The College Research Impact Award has been established this year to reward faculty members at the College in recognition of the exceptional impact of their research or research creations on the economy, society, culture, public policy or services, health, the environment, or quality of life locally,

We had a fantastic time playing badminton with Prof. Michael Pecht from the University of Maryland during his visit to Hong Kong. It was a fun break from work — we enjoyed sweat, laughs, and interesting conversations.

Our research team, led by Professor Tony Feng Shien-Ping, from the Department of Systems Engineering at CityUHK, has been awarded funding under the “RAISe+ Scheme” to address the complex metallisation challenges in the packaging of 3D integrated circuit (3DIC) semiconductor chips. The awarded project is titled “Chemical Additive-Enabled Advancements in Electroplated Copper for Advanced Electronic Packaging and 3DIC Applications”. https://www.cityu.edu.hk/hktech300/media/lates

Our research team has successfully developed a polyethyleneimine-added thermocell with enhanced thermoelectric performance and stability. This work was recently published in Nature Communications. The additive triggers four mechanisms: enhanced heat-triggered reactions, improved electrode ion movement, cool side ion clustering for higher voltage, and accelerated hot side processes, dramatically boosting power generation by over five times. Its self-limiting chemistry maintain

Our research team details an efficient low-grade waste heat conversion system in Nature Communications . In the study, we introduced a new ionic thermoelectric cycle system designed for efficient conversion of low-grade waste heat. The device employs a chemical-infused gel that possesses self-regenerative capabilities, ensuring consistent performance between 10°C and 60°C. It offers efficient electricity production, effective energy storage, and long-term stability. The techn

Our team has successfully developed a nanocrystalline (NC) copper material for direct copper-to-copper (Cu-Cu) bonding that works at lower temperatures with excellent bonding quality, which is an attractive solution for advanced electronic packaging. This work was recently published in Nature Communications , titled “ Nanocrystalline Copper for Direct Copper-to-copper Bonding with Improved Cross-interface Formation at Low Thermal Budget ”. https://www.cityu.edu.hk/research/st

Our team has developed a groundbreaking living passivator that substantially enhances the stability and efficiency of perovskite solar cells. This work was recently published in Nature , titled “ Water- and heat-activated dynamic passivation for perovskite photovoltaics ”, which was led by Professor Shien-Ping Feng, Associate Dean in the College of Engineering and Professor in the Department of Systems Engineering at CityUHK in collaboration with Professor Henry J. Snaith at
