Best Student Presentation Award 

Description: We are thrilled to share that our research titled: 

"Carbon Nano-based Super Black Coating for Enhancing Light Absorptance and Hydrophobicity on Ti–6Al–4V Substrates via Chemical Vapor Deposition"  

has been honored with an award at the 2026 Spring Conference of the KSME Micro/Nano Engineering Division.

This collaborative work was driven by Geuntak Yook and Prof. Jinsung Rho, alongside Thuy Kieu Troung, Prof. Hongseok Yoon, Prof. Youngdeok Park, and Prof. Geonhee Kim from the Departments of Mechanical Engineering and Defense Space Engineering at Hanbat National University.

The study presented an innovative approach using chemical vapor deposition (CVD) to apply a carbon nano-based super black coating onto Ti-6Al-4V substrates. This advanced surface treatment significantly enhances both light absorptance and hydrophobicity, showing immense potential for high-reliability optical systems and aerospace applications.
