Sang-Kee Eah

Assistant Professor of Physics

Education:
2001 Ph.D. Seoul National University, Korea
1995 Masters of Physics,
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
2001-2002: Postdoctoral Research Associate, University of Pittsburg

Research Interests:

Ultrafast synthesis and 2D self-assembly of monolayer-protected gold nanoparticles

The Eah group has been working on development of a new ultrafast synthesis method for colloidal gold nanoparticles and their 2D self-assembly into a monolayer film using a toluene droplet. In addition to basic science study of gold nanoparticles, several application projects are under way including surface-enhanced Raman scattering, nanoparticles memory, nano-drum, and catalysis by gold.
