Prof. Inkyu Park
Department of Mechanical Engineering, Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST)
BSAC Postdoc 2008
December 2, 2014 | 12:30 to 01:30 | 540 Cory Hall
Host: Liwei Lin
Wearable electronics are becoming a new paradigm for the next generation of computing and electronic systems. Leading global companies such as Google, Samsung and Apple are investing great effort in the development and commercialization of wearable and flexible electronic systems. The essential components for wearable electronic systems are circuits (transistors and RFIC), display (visual and tactile), power (battery and solar), and sensors (bio and environmental). Recent trends and state-of-the-art technology in these components and systems will be presented. Various chemical and physical sensors are being developed at KAIST to augment wearable systems. The presentation will describe flexible gas sensors for toxic gases (metal oxide nanowire-based) and hydrogen (metal nanotube-based), and photosensitive nanomaterial-based flexible UV sensors and metal nanowire/CNT-based flexible and stretchable strain sensors for human motion detection.
