Research area
The Nanoscale Surface Chemistry Laboratory conducts research on developing new synthetic methods and surface chemical reactions for two-dimensional nanomaterials, including graphene, based on analytical and materials chemistry. The lab focuses on creating advanced optoelectronic materials with excellent properties. To precisely analyze the chemical and structural changes occurring during the synthesis or reaction processes of two-dimensional nanomaterials, the lab utilizes various surface analysis techniques (such as nanoscale microscopy and spectroscopy) to study the physical, chemical, optical, and electrical properties of these materials. Based on this fundamental research, the laboratory aims to propose new application possibilities by incorporating functional nanomaterials in energy, catalysis, and optoelectronic devices.

대면적 생산 가능…차세대 반도체 '청신호'
임현섭 GIST(광주과학기술원) 화학과 교수는 "반도체 공정이 계속 미세화되는 과정에서 실리콘으로 성능을 높이는 데 물리적인 한계가 오고 있다"며 "결국 채널에 사용되는 물질 자체를 더 좋은 소재로 바꿔야 하는 상태"라고 말했다.
