We focus on developing basic and applied technologies for tissue regeneration, growth factor or gene delivery, sustained drug delivery using various bio/medical polymers.

Topics of interest includes experimental fracture mechanics, stress analysis, lifetime predictions; rheology, extrusion simulation, screw rheometry and melt friction measurements for polymers and polymer composites

Our research involves the design and synthesis of functional molecules, which range from well-defined macromolecules to polymers by self-assembly, side-chain engineering, and “click” reaction. We are also interested in the ability of the materials to be used in a variety of applications including, organic thin film transistors, organic photovoltaic devices, and chemical and biological sensors

The goal of our lab is to understand and control the structure of soft matter at interfaces in dimensions ranging from nano- to macroscale and engineer new functional materials.  Research keyword comprises bio-medical material, eco-friendly material, and functional polymers.

We develop organic materials with understanding their nanostructures and functionalities for electronic and energy applications. Organic semiconductors and crystalline polymers are studied for thin film electronics such as transistors, memories and sensors. As well as, ion transport electrolytes are investigated for their high ion exchange and transport as an active layer of energy devices like fuel cells and batteries.

We focus on developing supramolecular optoelectronic materials based on fine organic/inorganic synthesis, spectroscopy, electrochemistry, and computational chemistry. Research keyword comprises artificial photosynthesis and various optoelectronic devices.
