What does Nobel Prize winner Zhu Jingwu do? In what year did you win the Nobel Prize?
Superconducting physicist Zhu Jingwu is mainly engaged in the basic and applied research of high temperature superconductivity. 1987, Zhu Jingwu and others announced for the first time that they had obtained superconductors with resistance exceeding 90K. He was the second president of the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology and the first president of Taiwan's comprehensive university system, and was elected as the founding member of the Hong Kong Academy of Sciences on 20 15.

Zhu Jingwu was nominated for the Nobel Prize, but he didn't win it in the end.

Extended data:

1987 65438+1October, the research team led by Zhu Jingwu successfully discovered a new superconducting material of 93K(- 180℃), which exceeded the temperature of liquid nitrogen for the first time, and opened a new era of high-temperature superconducting research and application. In the subsequent experiments, new materials were continuously discovered and the superconducting transition temperature record was refreshed. The superconducting transition temperature was raised to164k (-109 C) in 1993. In 2000, Zhu Jingwu was invited by the White House to participate in "Great Inventions of the 20th Century: Time Toolkit for the New Era", and was selected as one of the most influential gas and electricity figures in this century 100 by Century Dynamics.
