Welcome to the Shim Research Group home page.
Our research interests span a broad range of disciplines from materials synthesis to nanoelectronic devices. Our research revolves around nanoscale materials with unique electronic and optical properties. We are particularly interested in low dimensional materials such as colloidal quantum dots and carbon nanotubes.
Members of the Shim research group utilize a variety of different
methods/techniques including CVD and wet chemical syntheses, TEM, SEM,
AFM, XRD, XPS, electron transport measurements, optical and Raman
spectroscopy, and micro/nanofabrication in carrying out their research.
There are several on-going collaborations with research groups within
and outside the Department of Materials Science and Engineering as well
as in other institutions.
