Seoul National University, Korea
1993 Bachelor of Physics,
Seoul National University, Korea

Career Highlights:
2005-present: Assistant Professor, Department of Physics, Applied Physics, and Astronomy, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute
2002-2005: Postdoctoral Research Associate, University of Chicago and Argonne National Laboratory

Research Interests:

Nano-optics of Single Nanoparticles
Recently he developed an easy way of attaching just one single gold nanoparticle to the end of an optical fiber tip. Using this freely movable single nanoparticle as a nano-sensor he is developing a “Scanning Thermal Microscope in water for mitochondria” and is trying to achieve “Strongly coupling a single gold nanoparticle to a high Q optical cavity”.

Synthesis and Self-assembly of Monodisperse Nanoparticles
Following his discovery of a self-assembly method for highly monodisperse gold nanoparticles to make very large and highly ordered 2D superlattices, he wants to extend the method to nanoparticles of other sizes, shapes, and materials.

Selected Publications:
Coming soon.
