Professor Jun Sung Kim's research lab specializes in the design and application of two-dimensional and van der Waals heterostructures for next-generation spintronic and optoelectronic devices. The lab focuses on leveraging atomically thin materials, particularly topological insulators and transition metal dichalcogenides, to achieve efficient spin-orbit torque and enhanced fluorescence for advanced imaging and sensing. A key research direction involves engineering heterostructures with atomically sharp interfaces to minimize current leakage and maximize charge-to-spin conversion efficiency at room temperature. The lab also explores multimodal nanoprobes for biomedical diagnostics and cell tracking, integrating nanomaterials with optical and magnetic functionalities.

All-Van der Waals (vdW)-material-based heterostructures with atomically sharp interfaces offer a versatile platform for high-performing spintronic functionalities at room temperature. One of the key components is vdW topological insulators (TIs), which can produce a strong spin-orbit-torque (SOT) through the spin-momentum locking of their topological surface state (TSS). However, the relatively low conductance of the TSS introduces a current leakage problem through the bulk states of the TI or t
