High-resolution quantitative X-ray phase nanoimaging based on cutting-edge optical imaging methods
Prof. Park’s group has developed a novel high-resolution quantitative X-ray phase imaging system that can overcome two long-standing challenges in X-ray nanoimaging: the limitations in image resolution and the instability of phase retrieval methods. They applied optical imaging techniques that they have recently developed in the same group. The imaging systems have been successfully tested in both synchrotron source and X-ray free-electron laser facilities at Pohang Accelerator Laboratory....read more

Selective and Efficient Photocatalytic Conversion of CO2 with Ultrathin Nanosheets
Prof. Doh Chang Lee’s group has developed a novel photocatalyst based on ultrathin CdS nanosheets for selective and efficient light-driven conversion of CO2 into CO. Surface engineering at atomic precision on CdS nanosheets enabled spatial separation of the reductive active sites and the oxidative active sites to designated facets. The facet-resolved redox-active sites favored efficient charge separation in the CdS nanosheets under light, leading to two-orders-of-magnitude increase in conversion rate of CO2-to-CO. ...read more
