이 교수의 연구실은 수용액 기반의 나노결정성 무기물 합성과 생체모방적 구조 제어를 핵심으로 하며, 특히 아연산화물(ZnO),titania, 실리카 유리 등에서의 나노구조 제어 및 결함 형성 거동을 연구하고 있습니다. 고체상에서의 결정성장 메커니즘, 겔 매트릭스 내에서의 다이내믹한 형상 변화, 레이저 유도 결함의 기전 등 다양한 물리화학적 과정을 정밀하게 제어하는 데 초점을 맞추고 있습니다. 이는 고기능성 나노복합재료 및 신소재 개발을 위한 새로운 패러다임을 제시하고 있습니다.

A pH above 9.0 was essential for the formation of wurtzite zinc oxide (ZnO) in aqueous solution systems. The addition of complexing agents to decrease the deposition rate was required for the direct growth of ZnO on the surface of substrates through heterogeneous nucleation. The nucleation of the crystals was promoted by undercoats derived from zinc acetate. Wurtzite ZnO films consisting of hexagonal columns with diameters of 20–100 nm were successfully prepared on various substrates under suita
Monodisperse hollow nanocylinders consisting of crystalline titania particles have been directly prepared in a porous alumina membrane by a deposition technique using an aqueous solution system of titanium tetrafluoride.
The effects of ArF excimer laser irradiation on dehydrated high-purity silica glass were investigated on both the optical-absorption bands due to oxygen-deficient centers (ODC) and the formation of ${E}^{\ensuremath{'}}$ centers. With an intense uv flux from an excimer laser, an ${E}^{\ensuremath{'}}$-center density of the order of ${10}^{15}$ ${\mathrm{cm}}^{\ensuremath{-}3}$ was created. The 7.6-eV absorption band remains at the original level, while the 5.0-eV absorption band having the 4.3-e
The morphological evolution of the inorganic crystals (Ba(NO3)2, NH4Cl, H3BO3, and K2Cr2O7) was demonstrated in various kinds of organic gel media (agar, gelatin, pectin, and poly (vinyl alcohol)). As the gel density increased, the morphology grown in the gel matrix remarkably changed from polyhedral single crystals exhibiting specific habits into dendritic forms consisting of irregularly branched polycrystalline aggregates regardless of the sorts of inorganic compounds and gelling agents. The e
Abstract Here, we describe a biomimetic pathway for the synthesis of hierarchically structured inorganic crystals. In artificial systems mimicking biomineralization, versatile morphogenesis was achieved with the construction of bridged nanocrystals through self-organization by controlling growth with polymeric molecules such as a gel matrix and soluble anionic polymers. The self-organized formation of bridged crystals in hierarchical architectures is a possible new paradigm for advanced material
Effects of intrinsic defects on defect formation by excimer-laser irradiation were examined in synthetic silica glasses prepared by different methods. In samples containing oxygen-deficient centers (ODC's), laser-induced E' centers were stable at room temperature. In contrast, in samples heat treated in ${\mathrm{H}}_{2}$ atmosphere, in which almost all ODC's changed into Si-H bonds, the induced-E'-center concentration increased by about two orders of magnitude, and the resulting E' centers were
Abstract We report a novel hierarchically organized superstructure emerging from an exquisite association of inorganic crystals, organic polymers, and dyes. The resultant K 2 SO 4 /poly(acrylic acid) composite includes five different tiers from the nanoscopic to the macroscopic. An additional new tier leading to functionality is formed by the incorporation of organic dyes that are organized in a nanospace. The emergent superstructure and properties are designed through changes in polymer concent
Ceramic textiles and wools consisting of micrometer-sized TiO2 hollow fibers with porous walls were prepared by a chemical solution deposition technique using TiF4 aqueous solutions.
The band-gap energy tuning of WO3 quantum dots was realized in the range of 2.6 eV (bulk) to 3.7 eV (sub-nano) by precise size control around one nanometer. Newly synthesized sub-nanoporous silicas act as excellent templates. In addition, single-electron reduction of oxygen under UV irradiation is now achievable with WO3.
Generation of typical paramagnetic centers by \ensuremath{\gamma} irradiation was studied for various kinds of synthetic silica glasses. Growth behavior of E' centers and nonbridging oxygen hole centers (NBOHC's) with \ensuremath{\gamma}-ray dose depends on contained preexisting point defects. By irradiation at room temperature, E' centers grow linearly and show a saturating tendency in silicas that contain precursors for E' centers, such as oxygen-deficient centers (ODC's), Si-H bonds or Si-Cl
