Professor Hoeil Chung's research lab specializes in advanced spectroscopic techniques and nanomaterials for analytical and environmental applications. The lab focuses on developing and optimizing near-infrared (NIR) and Raman spectroscopy for real-time, non-invasive monitoring in complex systems such as bioreactors, petroleum products, and pharmaceuticals. A key research direction involves designing functional nanomaterials—particularly graphene-based and gold nanoparticle-embedded hydrogels—for enhanced sensing performance, including selective doping and surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). The lab also emphasizes improving spectral reliability and sample representation through innovative optical and material engineering strategies.

Calibration models are generated and evaluated for the measurement of five different components in synthetic mixtures prepared in aqueous solutions. Mixtures of glucose, glutamine, ammonia, lactate, and glutamate were prepared to simulate concentration levels expected during routine bioreactor fermentation processes. Near-IR spectra were collected from these solutions over the spectral range from 5000 to 4000 cm −1 . This spectral information was used to build individual multivariate calibration
Near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy has been successfully applied to the determination of API (American Petroleum Institute) gravity of atmospheric residue (AR), which is the heaviest fraction in crude oil. This fraction is completely dark and very viscous. Preliminary studies involving Raman and infrared (IR) spectroscopies were also evaluated along with NIR spectroscopy. The Raman spectrum of AR was completely dominated by strong fluorescence from polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, called asphalte
A simple and efficient method to enhance the quaternary nitrogen doping (N-doping) of graphene has been demonstrated. Recent studies have shown that quaternary N in the graphene network provides more efficient electrocatalytic activity. Therefore, a novel strategy to enhance the quaternary N-doping is currently in high demand. The strategy employed in this work was to modify graphene oxide (GO) prior to thermal annealing so as to provide a more efficient structure for quaternary N doping. GO was
This review summarizes recent studies to improve sample representation in Raman measurement by covering a large area of a sample in spectral collection. Three different schemes have been mainly investigated to fulfill the goal: (1) averaging of Raman spectra collected at many different locations on a sample, (2) rotation of a sample during spectral collection and (3) simultaneous wide area illumination (WAI) for spectral collection. The use of a wide area illumination scheme, simultaneously illu
Abstract This review primarily concerns NIR (near‐infrared) applications in refineries. Initially, this article reviews the fundamental aspects for analysis of hydrocarbon mixture by NIR spectroscopy, such as spectral sensitivity in various spectral regions, signal‐to‐noise ratio, and spectral resolution. Though there are applications of NIR to diverse petroleum products, this review subsequently focuses only on applications to four major products: gasoline, diesel, naphtha, and crude oil, which
