Research Projects
- Investigation of biochips composed of biomimic nanowells.
- Construction of systems that detect biomolecules using nanopore structures.
- High-resolution imaging and atomic manipulation of biomolecules using scanning probe microscopy.
- Five senses detection systems using self-organized biomolecular devices.
- Studies of functional nanoelectronics composed of transition metal oxides using nanostructures, including nanorods and nanowires.
Our department aims to explore 1) biomolecular devices via advanced nanolithography techniques and nanomeasurement techniques; and 2) high-resolution imaging and manipulation of biomolecules toward novel biomimic nanodevices, using scanning probe microscopy. In addition, we study functional nanoelectronics composed of transition metal nano-oxides, including nanorods and hetero-nanowires.
