Javey Lab: Electrodermal Activity as a Proxy for Sweat Rate Monitoring during Physical and Mental Activities

April 14, 2025
Don’t sweat it! Wearable sweat sensor can track your hydration status during physical and mental activities April 15, 2025 by Marni Ellery

Multimodal sweat sensor - Javey Group 2025

Dehydration can sneak up on you. Whether you’re out jogging or sitting at a desk, it’s easy to lose track of your fluid intake. But a new, tiny sweat sensor may soon solve this problem. Designed by UC Berkeley researchers, this...

BPNX1006: Quantitative Optical Characterization of Indium Selenide

Jamie Geng
2024

Bulk gamma-InSe has a direct bandgap of 1.24 eV, which corresponds to near infrared (NIR) wavelengths (λ = 1.0 µm) useful in optoelectronic applications from biometric detectors to silicon photonics. However, its potential for optoelectronic applications is largely untapped due in part to the lack of quantitative studies of its optical properties. Here, we study the unusually low absorptance and high photoluminescence quantum efficiency of single-crystalline InSe flakes with thickness in the hundreds of nanometers. InSe emits brightly at room temperature from its direct bandgap with a peak...

Hyong Min Kim

Graduate Student Researcher
Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Professor Ali Javey (Advisor)
Ph.D. 2028 (Anticipated)

Hyong is a Ph.D. student in the Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences Department at University of California, Berkeley. He received his Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering from the Univeristy of Pennsylvania in 2023. In his undergraduate research, Hyong studied quantum emission from strained 2D materials, ferroelectric field-emission transistors based on AlScN/2D material heterostructures, and scanning probe characterization of 1D-2D material interfaces. Hyong's current research at Berkeley is on fabricating next-generation Mid-Wave Infrared (MWIR) optoelectronic devices...
