This research area integrates microfabrication techniques with integrated circuit technologies to develop ultra-miniaturized, high-performance sensors, with an emphasis on reliability and accuracy in real-world applications.
Key Research Topics:
Pressure Sensors
We design diaphragm-based pressure sensors capable of accurately detecting mechanical deformation. These sensors are applicable in areas such as implantable biomedical devices and force-feedback systems in industrial robotics.
Crack Sensors
We develop high-sensitivity crack sensors that can detect micro-crack formation in real time. These are used for structural fatigue monitoring, wearable electronic skin (e-skin), and smart textiles.
Gas Sensors
By integrating sensitive materials (such as nanostructured metal oxides and graphene) into MEMS platforms, we are developing gas sensors capable of detecting hazardous gases and biomolecules (e.g., NH₃, H₂S, VOCs) at low concentrations with high precision.
Technical Highlights:
Precision structure design through advanced MEMS microfabrication processes
Multifunctional sensor platforms combining physical and chemical sensing capabilities
Integration with wireless communication and data analytics to enable smart sensing systems
Wide application range in biomedical monitoring, environmental sensing, healthcare, and industrial diagnostics
