Research Interests

1. Novel synthesis and functionalization of nanomaterials for multi-modal physical/chemical sensing and energy-harvesting applications.
   
   

2. Polymer-based multifunctional composites and electrospun polymer nanofiber platforms (e.g., PAN electrospinning-enabled piezoelectric devices) for flexible sensing/harvesting, robotics integration, and surgical training/medical simulation.
   
   

3. Development of SPM-based nano-metrologies enabling multi-physical and chemical property mapping for energy, environment, and robotics applications.
   
   

4. Mechanics-based and multiphysics simulation/modeling to connect structure–property–performance relationships and guide materials/device design.
