The NETS laboratory researches nanoscience that can be applied to energy and clean technology applications, and ultimately seeks to contribute to technological innovation in terms of energy and sustainability. Design and analyze complex membranes, nanohydrodynamics, optoelectronics, and electrochemical platforms composed of one-dimensional and two-dimensional materials to understand special mass transfer phenomena in low-dimensional space, and apply them to energy, environment, bio, and sensor fields. I want to. Based on an understanding of the transfer phenomenon of low-dimensional space, by studying topics such as the detection of biochemical properties based on an ultra-high sensitivity species sensing technique based on surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy, or energy and hydrogen production through lithium-water batteries, Finally, we create basic engineering knowledge that contributes to solving global energy and sustainability issues.
