AIXTRON Black Magic enables CNT and Graphene technology at Pusan National University

Professor Kwang-Ho Kim and Assistant Professor Hyung Woo Lee from the National Core Research Center (NCRC) at PNU are working on a government-supported project for hybrid materials based upon carbon nanotubes (CNT) and Graphene.

Professor Kwang-Ho Kim comments: “Our research is focussed on developing novel hybrid structures containing CNT and Graphene which utilize the unique physical and electronic properties of these materials. We apply these in various electronic devices such as solar cells and sensors. Our study needed equipment with a wide process range in CVD and PECVD in order to reproducibly synthesize all different CNT and Graphene structures which we are interested in; these stringent process requirements are met with AIXTRON's Black Magic system. The system indeed produces high quality films reliably with ease and flexible control.”

Established in 2006, the National Core Research Center for Hybrid Materials Solution at Pusan National University comprises ninety researchers and is a leading center for industrial materials research in Korea. Professor Hyung Woo Lee, who worked in MIT as a postdoctoral associate, joined PNU as an assistant professor in 2010 and is in charge of the Advanced Carbon-based Energy Systems (ACES) lab. His research interests lie in organic solar cells, biosensors, dye-sensitized solar cells, supercapacitors, and ultra-fast rechargeable batteries based on CNT/Graphene na
