About the Lab
Professor Tae-Won Kim's research lab specializes in advanced materials development with a focus on structural composites, solid-state electrolytes for batteries, and electrocatalysts for sustainable energy applications. The lab investigates the mechanical behavior and damage detection in fiber-reinforced polymers using smart sensing techniques, while also advancing functional materials such as iridium complexes for optoelectronics and Prussian Blue analogues for sodium-ion battery electrolytes. Key research directions include machine learning-driven prediction of impact performance, durable catalyst supports for acidic oxygen evolution reactions, and innovative hybrid welding processes for high-strength joining in structural metals.

15Fabric-layered composites play a crucial role in safety and surveillance applications, making it imperative to accurately predict their impact behavior. This research focuses on creating a machine-learning model to predict the impact behavior of fabric-stacked composites, specifically carbon and Kevlar fabrics. Low-velocity impact tests were performed with varying parameters, and the impact energy and laminate thickness information were used to train machine-learning models to predict impact pro
Heteroleptic tris-cyclometalated Ir(III) complexes supported by the o -carboranyl–phosphine ligand ( CBP ), (C ∧ N) 2 Ir( CBP ) (C ∧ N = ppy ( 1 ), dfppy ( 2 )), have been synthesized and characterized. The PL spectra of 1 and 2 displayed substantially blue shifted phosphorescence relative to the corresponding Ir(C ∧ N) 3 complexes. Electrochemical and theoretical studies showed that the CBP ligand functioned as a strong-field ancillary ligand, and the greater HOMO stabilization in comparison to
Abstract Conventional solid electrolyte frameworks typically consist of anions such as sulphur, oxygen, chlorine, and others, leading to inherent limitations in their properties. Despite the emergence of sulphide, oxide, and halide‐based solid electrolytes for all‐solid‐state batteries, their utilization is hampered by issues, including the evolution of H 2 S gas, the need for expensive elements, and poor contact. Here, we first introduce Prussian Blue analogue (PBA) open‐framework structures as
Only a few materials can remain undissolved under working conditions for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in acidic media, which limits the choice of catalysts and supports. One of the practical catalyst/support candidates is IrOx/Sb:SnO2 (Ir/ATO) because both components are thermodynamically stable under low-pH anodic conditions. Moreover, between Ir and ATO, a strong metal–support interaction is present, thereby allowing for long-lasting OER activity unless the support degrades. However, we
TIG arc welding and laser welding are used widely in the world. However, these welding processes have some advantages and problems respectively. In order to improve problems and make use of advantages of the arc welding and the laser welding processes, hybrid welding process combined the TIG arc with the YAG laser was studied. Especially, the suitable welding conditions for thin steel plate welding were investigated to obtain sound weld with beautiful surface and back beads but without weld defe
Carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRPs) have high specific stiffness and strength, but they are vulnerable to transverse loading, especially low-velocity impact loadings. The impact damage may cause serious strength reduction in CFRP structure, but the damage in a CFRP is mainly internal and microscopic, that it is barely visible. Therefore, this study proposes a method of determining impact damage in CFRP via poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) sensor, which is convenient and has high mechanical
