Korea Institute of Science and Technology
(2013-2015) Research Associate

Worked on fabrication and characterization of novel optoelectronic devices and ideas.
1. An automatic smart window that responses to incident wavelength.
2. GaAs nanowire fabrication via MBE + nano imprinted Au catalysts.
3. A "transparent" stained glass that can be applied to photovoltaic cells, UV sensors, BIPV application and device encapsulation layer.

Fellowships / Awards

Best Presentation Award
(2014) E-MRS
Earned the best presentation award from e-MRS 2014 conference held at Warsaw, Poland. My oral presentation was on a spectrum conversion nanophotonics platform that takes advantage of the UV light and convert it to diverse visible lights.
