Research Interests
Nano-electronics
Graphene and other 2D materials have lots of potentials for new physics, nano-electronics, especially. We are trying to find new methods for 2D building blocks for electronics devices. The group's research, condensed matter physics part, is interested in graphene based filament devices working in ambient condition and rhombohedral graphite devices, thermal transport devices etc.
1D & 2D Transport
We have been working with the nobel-prize winning material graphene - single layers of carbon atoms which exhibit electronic properties relevant to a wide range of device applications and fundamental questions in condensed matter physics. We are trying to research the physics of graphene and other 2D materials in low dimensional systems in order to study their behavior in magnetic fields and more....
Stretchable Conductor
Stretchable electronics are having great interests because of their wide availability in wearable devices, soft robotics, and implants. For the stretchable electronics, one of the most important and fundamental components is stretchable conductor. Stretchable conductor must maintain their original mechanical, and electrical performance despite of the stretching cycles. Our lab research aims the development of structural, and intrinsically stretchable conducting materials as a basic component for stretchable electronics for the actual use of display, transistor, sensors, and batteries. The materials include metallic hybrid materials which are composed of 0-D, 1-D, 2-D nanomaterials and stretchable polymer, in addition, organic conductive material such as PEODT:PSS.
