We are mainly interested in advanced polymer nanomaterials and their applications. New concepts and materials have been explored through numerous challenges for experimental analysis and constitutive description.
The specific current and future works are as follows:

1. Nanomaterials fabrication (nanoparticles, nanofibers, nanotubes)
2. Energy application (solar cells, fuel cells, water splitting)
3. Environmental application (cytotoxicity of nanomaterials,    chem/biosensors, antimicrobial polymers)
4. Electronic device application (Patterning by inkjet printing, OTFT,    OLED, nonvolatile memory)
