Atomic lift-off of epitaxial membranes for cooling-free infrared detection
Prof. Celesta S. Chang
Professor Celesta S. Chang's research team from the Department of Physics and Astronomy has developed an 'Atomic Lift-Off' technique that enables the production of ultrathin, freestanding perovskite oxide membranes—paving the way for high-performance, cooling-free infrared sensors.

Decadal Changes in Meridional Overturning Circulation in the East Sea (Sea of Japan)
Prof. SUNGHYUN NAM
Meridional overturning circulation (MOC) is vital to distributing heat, freshwater, and dissolved matter in semienclosed deep marginal seas such as the East Sea (ES) (Sea of Japan). As our understanding of the ES MOC remains incomplete, we attempted to fill this research gap. We analyzed the ES MOC and its decadal chan...

Modeling and Simulation of a Fully-glycosylated Full-length SARS-CoV-2 Spike Protein in a Viral Membrane
Prof. Chaok Seok
This technical study describes all-atom modeling and simulation of a fully-glycosylated fulllength SARS-CoV-2 spike (S) protein in a viral membrane. First, starting from PDB:6VSB and 6VXX, full-length S protein structures were modeled using template-based modeling, de-novo protein structure prediction, and loop modelin...

Graphene quantum dots as anti-inflammatory therapy for colitis
Prof. Kyung-Sun Kang
Abstract While graphene and its derivatives have been suggested as a potential nanomedicine in several biomimetic models, their specific roles in immunological disorders still remain elusive. Graphene quantum dots (GQDs) may be suitable for treating intestinal bowel diseases (IBDs) because of their low toxicity in vivo...

The stone-base illusion
Prof. Songjoo Oh
Abstract A popular method used to construct the post structure in traditional Korean buildings is simply placing a stone base on the ground in the natural form and a wooden post on top of the stone base. Interestingly, an illusory visual completion often occurs at the joint where the stone base and the post join. Thus,...

A discrete core-shell-like micro-light-emitting diode array grown on sapphire nano-membranes
Prof. Euijoon Yoon
Abstract A discrete core-shell-like micro-light-emitting diode (micro-LED) array was grown on a 100 nm-thick sapphire nano-membrane array without harmful plasma etching for chip singulation. Due to proper design for the sapphire nano-membrane array, an array of multi-faceted micro-LEDs with size of 4 μm × 16 μm was gro...
