Group 1. Surface
Prof. Taek Dong Chung’s lab
Chung group at Seoul National University explores a variety of interdisciplinary research fields centered around electrochemical processes occurring at heterogeneous surface-electrolyte interfaces. Extensive studies are being conducted independently and in collaboration with numerous research groups and institutions. Research efforts range from microfluidics, iontronics, reverse electrodialysis, fourier transform electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, photoelectrochemical catalysis, phage electrochemistry, nanogap electrochemistry, silicon dioxide dielectric layer, redox active ionic liquids, bio-fuel cell, interdigitated array, and artificial synaptic interface.
Prof. Hye Ryung Byon’s lab
Byon group aimed to understand the surface/interface electrochemical reactions in energy storage and conversion systems to resolve scientific and engineering challenges for green energy technology. We have particularly focused on gaining fundamental insights into the development of new electrochemical redox-active materials and electrocatalysts for electrochemical energy systems. Byon group has achieved these research targets using advanced nanomaterials and organic molecules and in situ analyses of electrochemical reactions at the surfaces and interfaces.
Prof. Chang Hyuck Choi’s lab
Prof. Chang Hyuck Choi’s group is interested in electrocatalysis for effective energy storage and conversion systems. The main objective of their research is an understanding of intrinsic relationships between ‘catalyst-electrolyte interphase’ and ‘electrocatalytic performance’.
