【#WeArePolyU】What does the word “research” mean to you?
“Research is a journey of exploration. While you start out trying to find something, in the end you may discover something else.” With the aim of driving innovation and technology advancement, Prof. Lu and other PolyU researchers developed an optical communications technology to enable simpler, cheaper and commercially favourable solutions that broke the world record for the fastest optical communications for data centres. With 30 years of research experience, Prof. Lu has recently embarked on another journey to explore the application of optical communication technologies for smart city development.
