기능성 유/무기 나노재료 합성 연구실

Polymeric Responsive Intelligent Structural Materials

정밀 3D 미세구조를 광학적으로 제작하고, 이를 촉각 센서 시스템과 3D 전방위 시차(full-parallax) 홀로그램 패턴 제작에 적용합니다. 우리 연구실의 연구 범위는 기능성 공액고분자 합성, 유무기 하이브리드 재료 합성, 미세유체 채널 제작을 위한 연성 리소그래피, 3D/4D 프린팅, 3D 홀로그래피, 구조색 시스템 개발에 걸쳐 있습니다. 또한 외부 자극(예: pH, 기계적 변형, 습도, 휘발성 유기화합물, 유해 가스 등)에 반응해 색이 변하는 유기 소재와 공액고분자를 설계·합성하여, 신경작용제를 신속·정확하게 탐지하는 화생방(CBRN) 센서 기술 개발 연구도 활발히 진행하고 있습니다. 이러한 역량을 바탕으로, 맞춤형 광학 특성을 지닌 유무기 기능성 나노재료를 설계·합성하고 3차원 미세유체 채널을 이용해 전례 없는 광학 응답을 보이는 미세구조를 연속적으로 제조함으로써 위변조 방지 시스템을 개발하고 있습니다.
We optically fabricate precise 3D microstructures and apply them to tactile sensor systems and to the production of 3D full-parallax hologram patterns. Our lab’s research spans the synthesis of functional conjugated polymers; organic–inorganic hybrid materials; soft lithography for microfluidic channel fabrication; 3D/4D printing; 3D holography; and structural-color systems. In addition, we design and synthesize stimuli-responsive organic materials and conjugated polymers that undergo distinct color changes upon external cues (e.g., pH, mechanical strain, humidity, volatile organic compounds, and toxic gases) to enable rapid and accurate detection of nerve agents, advancing chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) sensor technologies. Building on these capabilities, we develop anti-counterfeiting systems by designing and synthesizing functional organic–inorganic nanomaterials with tailored optical properties and by continuously manufacturing microstructures with unprecedented optical responses using three-dimensional microfluidic channels.
