The research conducted by South Korea's Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology (UNIST), Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin für Materialien und Energie (HZB), Heinz Maier Leibnitz Zentrum (MLZ), and Soongsil University has been published in Nature Communications on February 27, 2025. This advancement can be applied to develop sustainable isotope separation technologies using existing LNG cryogenic infrastructure.

Research on the flexible hybrid epidermal electronic system (FHEES) has attracted considerable attention due to its potential applications in human-machine interaction and healthcare. However, the heterogeneous integration of soft and stiff components makes balancing comfort and performance in designing and implementing FHEESs challenging. A new study, published in Research, reviews multimodal FHEESs in two types: all-in-one and assembled, highlighting the design challenge with different heterogeneous integration strategies.

Dr. Han's team at KERI develops nano-based 'high-energy lightweight wire' technology.

Through collaborative research with KIMS and Konkuk University, the performance of carbon nanotube wires was verified.

An AI-powered robot that can prepare cups of coffee in a busy kitchen could usher in the next generation of intelligent machines, a study suggests.

A rapid prototyping platform called VIK (Voxel Invention Kit) enables makers without engineering expertise to create large-scale interactive devices using a series of reconfigurable electromechanical building blocks. These user-friendly components can be assembled using only a soldering iron and a pair of pliers.
