SNU college of engineering held the ‘2018 Shinyang Engineering Academic Award Ceremony’ at the Engineering House auditorium on campus on the 17th. 6 people received the award including, Yoonchan Jeong, professor of Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering.

Prof. Cha examined referenced examples of major innovations from the U.S., China, and Germany, which are arising as major players in the Fourth Industrial Revolution hegemonic competition.

The venture company AIRS Medical which started from Laboratory for Imaging Science and Technology (Supervisor: Prof. Jongho Lee B) applied Artificial Intelligence to MRI, reducing the scan time to less than a quarter of the existing solutions without degrading the image quality.

During the “Display Day” ceremony held at 6 P.M. on October 1st at the J.W. Marriott Hotel, Prof. Yongtaek Hong was recognized for his contribution to the advancement in flexible/elastic display technology and Korea’s display industry.

Nobel prize in Physics of 2018 was awarded to two research areas that are acknowledged for their groundbreaking inventions in the field of laser physics. Arthur Ashkin (Bell LaboratoriesResearcher, 96), who invented ‘optical tweezers’ and applied it to research in biology, is one of the winners.

Domestic researchers developed a wearable electronic device platform that can stretch easily like the human skin and, without restraint, disperse the force inflicted on the device during deformation. This seems to have paved the way for developing wearable devices that function stably without a drop in performance even when twisted.

SNU ECE Prof. Yoonchan Jeong was recently named OSA fellow. According to an announcement by SNU on the 5th, Prof. Jeong was the first in the world to develop multi-kilowatt single-mode fiber laser, and he elucidated the probabilistic photon mechanics phenomenon of quasi mode-locking fiber laser.
