BioPhotonics Engineering Laboratory (BPEL) in Yonsei Univ.
Ph.D. candidate at Yonsei University
I am a Ph.D. candidate in Electrical and Electronic Engineering at Yonsei University, advised by Prof. Donghyun Kim. My research interests lie broadly in optics and photonics, with a particular emphasis on computational imaging and nanophotonics. By integrating optical system design with advanced computational methods, I have developed imaging platforms including super-resolution microscopy, label-free holographic imaging and metasurface-integrated devices. Through this work, I aim to push the boundaries of optical imaging and enable versatile applications in biophotonics, nanotechnology, and next-generation display systems.
