The Introduction of
Hefei
Institutes of Physical Science,
Chinese Academy of Sciences (CASHIPS)
History:
Hefei Institutes of Physical Science, Chinese Academy of
Sciences（CASHIPS）,
Formerly the Hefei Branch of CAS founded in 1978, is
composed of 5 institutes, the Institute of Plasma Physics (IPP), the Institute of Solid State Physics (ISSP)，Anhui
Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics (AIOFM), and Hefei
Institute of Intelligent Machines (IIM), High Magnetic Field
Laboratory (HMFL)
and a Academy-Local cooperation Center named "Anhui Academy
of Recycling Economical and Technical Engineering ".
It is located on the beautiful peninsula near Shushan
Lake, west suburb of Hefei city, Anhui, China.
Staff
Members:
Among 1500 employees, there are 1000 scientists, engineers
and technicians with 111 research professors, 270 associate
research professors. 2 winners of National Outstanding Youth Foundation Program.
Besides, there are also 680 graduate students、post-doctor
and visiting scholars gathered in this academic area. Some
of them come from Hongkong, Macao，Taiwan
or abroad.
Lab.
& Research Fields:
There are 20 well equipped laboratories. Including 8 key
labs such as: Atmosphere Optics Lab, one of the major
laboratories of
“national
high tech projects”;
two CAS major laboratories named “the internal friction &
defects in solids lab ”and “Ion-beam Bioengineering lab.”;
Laboratory of Optical Radiometric Calibration and
Characterization, Chinese Academy of Sciences; The Key
Laboratory of Environmental Optics and Monitoring Technique
of Anhui Province and a Nano-Technical Engineering Center of
Anhui etc. We have also built the first
super-conducting machine HT-7 tokamak in China and as a
Nuclear Fusion Research Center sponsored by the World
Laboratory, and a Research Center of the Third World Academy
of Science. The major research fields of
CASHIPS aim at the
following eight directions: Plasma physics and Magnetic
confinement fusion; Atmosphere optics; Nano-science &
material physics; Environmental optics & monitoring; High
magnet field science & technology; Ion-beam Bioengineering;
Laser application technology; Cryogenic&super conduct magnet
technology etc.
Major
Research Program:
Now is undertaking 69 projects in the National Ninth
Five-Year Key Scientific Project,
“973”
and “863”program
etc. Including“ HT-7U Super-conducting Tokamak experiment
instrument construction”; “ Ion-beam biology technology
application research”; “Investigation of Advanced
Quasi-steady-state operation with high performance plasma on
HT-7";“ Nano-material&stucture ”; “ low-cost, long-life
dye-solar cells ”;“ The Research of the Key Technology of
Air Quality Monitoring System using in City”; “The research
on tunable infrared laser differential absorption
spectrometer technique and system for monitoring emission
from on-road motor vehicles” etc.
Outstanding
Achievements:
Since 2002, Our scientific achievements have won 161 various
prizes authorized by national or provincial
government. Especially, the study result on HT-7
Super-conducting Tokamak obtained by the Institute of Plasma
Physics get significant success and won the first class
prize of scientific progress of CAS. It become one of the
two important devices to process high parameters steady
state plasma experiment in the world. “Study and Development
on High-Quality Tunable Laser Crystal Ti-doped Sapphire” won
the second class prize of national scientific progress etc.
Academic
Periodicals:
"Plasma
Science & Technology"(English version ),"Chinese
Journal of Quantum Electronics","Optoelectronic
Technology & Information".
Exchanges
and Collaborations:
Long-term mutual collaboration programs have been
established with foreign institutions over 20 countries. A
close relationship with Chiba University，Japan、
University of Herdelberg,
Germany and Keele University of U.K. has been set to
perform the studies in the area of laser spectrum,
environmental optics and monitoring technology. A JSPS-CAS
Core-University Program on plasma physics is going well with
National Institutes and universities of Japan. The
cooperation agreement has been conducted on plasma physics
experiments, nuclear fusion technology with General Atomics
of USA. CASHIPS works widely and closely with domestic
research institutes，universities
and enterprises inside and outside Chinese Academy of
Sciences (CAS) on scientific research, applied research and
development work. Twenty more R & D centers or
companies were initialized.
