Understanding Graphene Growth on Insulating Substrates
The work by Distinguished Professor Feng Ding from IBS CMCM at UNIST has been appeared in ACS Nano on March 22, 2021.
The thinnest material, graphene, is the most promising materials for many applications, such as in electronics, energy storage and etc. For high performance electronic applications, synthesizing graphene directly on an insulating substrate... Read More
New Study Presents Mechanochemistry for Ammonia Synthesis Under Mild Conditions
Their findings have been published in the December 2020 issue of Nature Nanotechnology.
Ammonia (NH3), which is used in many industrial processes, is mainly produced by the Haber–Bosch process at high temperatures (~500°C) and pressures above 100 bar, which cannot be performed under ambient conditions for kinetic reasons. A re... Read More
A New Drought Monitoring Approach: Vector Projection Analysis (VPA)
Their findings have been published in the January 2021 issue of Remote Sensing of Environment.
A team of researchers, affiliated with UNIST has proposed a satellite-aided drought monitoring method that can adequately represent the complex drought conditions into a single integrated drought index. The newly-proposed drought index has... Read More
Revealing Charge Transfer at the Interface of Spinel Oxide and Ceria during CO Oxidation
Their findings have been published in the February 2021 issue of ACS Catalysis and featured on the cover of the print edition.
A recent study has unveiled the reason behind the exceptional catalytic performance of non-noble metal-base mixed catalysts. This is thanks to a new synthetic strategy for the production of cube-shaped catalysts that could further simplify... Read More
Unveiling Electrode–Electrolyte Design-Based NO Reduction for NH3 Synthesis
Their findings have been featured as the cover page of the November 2020 issue of ACS Energy Letters.
A joint research team, affiliated with UNIST has unveiled a novel method of converting nitric oxide (NO), which is the main cause of fine dust, into pure ammonia (NH3) without emitting toxic gases, such as carbon dioxide (CO2). This breakth... Read More
New Study Introduces Ultraflat Sub-10 Nanometer Gap Electrodes for Two-Dimensional Optoelectronic Devices
Their findings have been published ahead-of-print in the online edition of ACS Nano on February 24, 2021.
A semiconductor chip about the size of a thumbnail contains a maximum of billions of microelements, such as transistors and diodes. These microelements on the semiconductor chip are composed of fine patterns, and thus a lithographic process... Read More
