Research Highlights & New

Group members (24.04)

Our laboratory is interested in developing novel nanomaterials through nanofabrication process. Research is largely focused on self-assembly of polymers, nanoparticles, and nanowires for the fabrication of 2D & 3D sub-10 nm nanoarchitectures. Our nanofabrication technology aims for levels of precision, reliability, and reproducibility suitable for large-scale manufacturing of devices. Devices and systems designed based on high-resolution nanoarchitectures can be potentially applied to various applications including sensor, fuel cell and water electrolysis. Our Lab provides a home for self-motivated students and postdocs in pursuite of careers in nanotechnology. Please feel free to contac the PI (Dr. Kim, Jong Min) for more information on available position.
