 he science of materials is entering an era of tailor-made materials, wherein, based upon the properties required for a desired application, a material is designed by exploiting the self-assembly of chosen constituent molecules. Materials so fabricated are presently proposed for numerous applications, ranging from electronic devices to bioengineering applications. My research focuses on developing a molecular model aimed at elucidating the fundamental mechanisms underlying the design of novel, self-assembled advanced materials. Through custom synthesis, the designed materials are prepared to exploit their potential as materials in need.
 ur group is generally interested in applications of molecular modeling to polymeric systems exhibiting self assembly such as block copolymers and their blends. In particular, fabrication process for such materials usually accompanies pressurization. The incorporation of finite compressibility is one of our expertise. |

ur group maintains strong interactions with leading synthesis groups and also radiation scattering groups around the world to make brand new materials and faciliate structural characterization including Seoul National University, Postech, Caltech, and also UMass-Amherst.
 ome of the current research areas of interest include
1. Design of materials and devices for nanopatterned organic solar cells
2. Phase Behavior of Diblock Copolymer Mixtures with Controlled
Nanostructures Using Neutron Scattering
3. Molecular modeling and structure analysis for self-assembled polymeric
nanomaterials
 e are always on the lookout for motivated undergraduate students who are interested in pursuing graduate research. Further, we are also looking for exceptional graduate students interested in postdoctoral research opportunities. If you are interested, please contact me by email ( jhcho@dankook.ac.kr ) with the information on your background and records.
