Career Profile
A seasoned researcher in the field of computational physics, specializing in the electronic structure calculations of two-dimensional materials. I earned a Ph.D. through extensive research in this area, followed by a postdoctoral fellowship, where I continued to explore advanced materials science. Currently, I am employed at POSCO Holdings, where I engage in research projects utilizing first-principle calculations, molecular dynamics and AI techniques to supports the optimization and analysis of materials manufacturing processes, with a focus on precursor co-precipitation and sintering processes of cathode materials.
Education
I studied electronic structure of two-dimensional solid-state materials using first-principles calculations, especially concerning theoretical design of two-dimensional inorganic materials with enhanced thermoelectric properties by band engineering, and mechanism of spin properties in symmetry broken solid materials (Rashba effect).
Experiences
I engage in research projects utilizing first-principle calculations, molecular dynamics and AI techniques to supports the optimization and analysis of materials manufacturing processes, with a focus on precursor co-precipitation and sintering processes of cathode materials.
I was involved in the development of 12 nanometer technology devices as a Wafer Level Reliability (WLR) Engineer to detect potential quality issues early and meet customer expectations for intrinsic and extrinsic levels of reliability.
I conducted theoretical studies on structural/electrical/optical properties of two-dimensional organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites using first-principles calculations.
I worked on computational research on electronic properties of two-dimensional materials.
I worked with syncrotron scientists on electronic properties of two-dimensional materials.
