Genome-scale Evaluation of Core One-carbon Metabolism in Gammaproteobacterial Methanotrophs Grown on Methane and Methanol
Their findings have been published in Metabolic Engineering on October 15, 2019.
A new metabolic pathway has been identified for methanotrophs, a group of bacteria that grow on methane (CH₄, also called greenhouse gas), as a sole source of carbon and energy. It is expected to be the cornerstone of technology that transf... Read More
Dynamic Transport Control of Colloidal Particles by Repeatable Active Switching of Solute Gradients
Their findings have been published in ACS Nano on October 10, 2019.
A technique to control the direction and rate of transport of colloidal particles in solution has been developed, using the partial concentration difference of salt occurs in salt water. As the operation required of them is very simple and... Read More
Superb Water Splitting Activity of the Electrocatalyst Fe3Co(PO4)4 Designed with Computation Aid
Their findings have been published in Nature Communications on November 15, 2019.
There has been much interest in ‘hydrogen that breaks water molecules apart to generate electricity’ as an environmentally friendly energy to replace fossil fuels. At the same time, it is important to increase the efficiency of... Read More
New Study Presents All‐Solid‐State Printed Bipolar Li–S Batteries
Their findings have been published in Advanced Energy Materials on September 5, 2019.
Ultrahigh‐capacity and fire‐resistant batteries have been developed. The new battery has improved both the performance and safety of the “lithium-sulfur batteries,” which have much larger capacities than commercialized lithium i... Read More

Efficient, Stable Solar Cells by Using Inherent Bandgap of α-phase Formamidinium Lead Iodide
Their findings have been published in Science on November 11, 2019.
Adding a small amount of other metals to iron that is soft and rusts easily, could result in sturdy and rust resistant stainless steel. Likewise, a technology has been developed to capture the shortcomings of peroveskite. The commercializat... Read More
Novel Biocatalytic System Turns Waste Biomass into Value-Added Chemicals
Their findings have been published in Nature Communications on November 12, 2019.
A research team, jointly led by Professor Ji Wook Jang, Professor Yong Hwan Kim, and Professor Sang Hoon Joo in the School of Energy and Chemical Engineering at UNIST has unveiled a novel biomass conversion technology that can turn forestry... Read More
Dissociating Stable Nitrogen Molecules under Mild Conditions by Cyclic Strain Engineering
Their findings have been published in the online version of Science Advances on November 1, 2019.
Nitrogen doping has emerged as a way to compensate for the shortcomings of graphene, the so-called Dream Material. Through this process, nitrogen is intercalated between carbon layers, which gives the graphene better properties. Besides, wi... Read More
A Tech Jewel: Converting Graphene into Diamond Film
The work by Distinguished Professor Rodney S. Ruoff has been published in Nature Nanotechnology on December 10, 2019.
Synthesis of the thinnest possible diamond-like material starting from bilayer graphene and without high pressure.
Can two layers of the “king of the wonder materials,” i.e. graphene, be linked and converted to the thinnest diamond-like material, the “king of the crystals”? An international team of researchers, affiliated with UN... Read More
Stable and Colorful Perovskite Solar Cells Using a Nonperiodic SiO2/TiO2 Multi-Nanolayer Filter
Their findings have been published in the October 2019 issue of ACS Nano.
It will not be long before seeing commercial buildings decorated with colorful perovskite solar cells (PSCs), like beautiful mosaic decoration at the ancient cathedral. With the advent of photovoltaic power system, one can take advantage of... Read More
