Welcome to the Chae Lab!
Welcome to the Chae Lab!
Chae Lab is an experimental optoelectronics/photonics group, studying a wide range of multidisciplinary projects with collaborations across Materials Science, Physics, and Electrical Engineering. Our research interests focus on understanding novel optoelectronic phenomena in atomically thin two-dimensional (2D) materials systems, exploring application as a new class of optoelectronic devices, and integrating their optical functions into silicon (Si) photonics for novel information processing.
