A team led by Ajou's Professor Hwan Myung Kim publishes the third paper in The Chemical Science, a renowned journal in chemistry [2016.04.11] A research paper authored by the team of Ajou University Professor Hwan Myung Kim (Department of Chemistry, Department of Energy System Research of the Graduate School) was published on April 7th in the online edition of The Chemical Science, which is issued by the Royal Society of Chemistry of the U.K. Cheol Ho Huh (doctoral course), Sang Jun Park (combined master's and doctorate program), and Avik Sarkar (postdoctoral course) worked together as the first authors for the paper, which is entitled "A Ratiometric Two-Photon Probe for Quantitative Imaging of Mitochondrial pH Values." 'A two-photon fluorescent probe' is a next-generation imaging material that can detect the quantity of different chemical species within organisms in real time. The results can be used in a precise diagnosis. Existing fluorescent probes use short wavelength light with high energy level (ultraviolet rays - visible rays) as the excitation source. That can cause damage to organism samples and allow for observing only the surface of tissues because the light cannot penetrate deep into them. The two-photon fluorescent probe, however, uses infrared rays with lower energy levels and deep penetration capability, which allows for observing inside the tissues of live organisms at the sub-cellular level through three-dimensional high-definition imaging. Professor Kim's team earlier published two papers on February 23th and October 27th last year in The Chemical Science, which is an influential journal in chemistry with an Impact Factor of 9.211 in 2014. The papers are entitled "A Quadrupolar Two-Photon Fluorescent Probe for In Vivo Imaging of Amyloid-β Plaques" and "A Carboxylesterase-Selective Ratiometric Fluorescent Two-Photon Probe and Its Application to Hepatocytes and Liver Tissues," respectively. Professor Kim said, "My team is currently conducting research on applying 'two-photon fluorescent probes' to the precise diagnosis and treatment of diseases," adding, "I plan to focus on developing various imaging materials and innovative and advanced diagnosis platforms." The research was conducted with the support of the Progressive Research Project and the Priority Research Institutes Project, which are carried out by the Ministry of Science, ICT, and Future Planning.

A team including Ajou University Professor In Sun Cho (pictured above) developed a low-cost, highly efficient nanomaterial doping technology. The findings were published as the cover paper in the February 18th edition of The Advanced Energy Materials. For the research, Professor Cho teamed up with Professor Xiaolin Zheng and Hyun Soo Han, a post-doctoral researcher, from the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Stanford University in the U.S. The study was conducted with the support for new researchers carried out by the Ministry of Science, ICT and Future Planning and the National Research Foundation of Korea. Professor Cho’s team developed a new nanomaterial doping technology using flames, which more than doubled the solar-to-hydrogen conversion efficiency of the hematite (α-Fe2O3) catalyst, a representative low-priced material of photoanodes. Doping is a technology for controlling electric and optical properties of semiconductors by adding impurities. The research team grew nanorod (NR)-shaped hematite on a transparent electrode with a low temperature solution process and evenly coated doping precursor including titanium on it. It then conducted a fast heat treatment with a high-temperature flame. In this process, the team succeeded in evenly doping and controlling high-density titanium without changing morphology or properties of the NRs. After that, the research team removed inert film in a solution-based etching process and coated the FeOOH with a subsidiary catalyst. The process improved both the movement of electric charge and surface properties within hematite photoanodes, which more than doubled the efficiency of hematite-based photoelectrochemical elements. Professor Cho said, "The doping technology that we have developed consists of quite a simple process and takes only a few seconds or minutes," adding, "It can be applied to various photoanode materials for inorganic semiconductors." He explained that the technology can be used to develop nanomaterials including solar batteries, which are the key to energy-related technologies, and to improve their performance. Professor Cho went on to say, "The findings are expected to contribute to developing next-generation nanomaterials for generating high-efficiency and low-cost hydrogen energy, and to developing essential technologies for designing photoelectrochemical elements."
