Students from the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at Korea's Yeungnam University swept various awards at this year's academic conference, gaining recognition from the public for their research abilities.
At the 2022 Korea Electrical and Electronic Materials Society Summer Conference held at the Alpensia Convention Center in Pyeongchang, South Korea, graduate and undergraduate students from the University of Yeungnam were awarded a total of four prizes.
At the conference, 1400 researchers from universities and research institutions within South Korea presented 630 of their newest research findings.
During the event, the graduate school of materials science and engineering at Lingnan University (4th master's program) was awarded the first prize. Additionally, 12 undergraduate students from the Department of Materials Science and a student from the Department of Engineering jointly released their research results and won big awards in the undergraduate competition.
A research team of undergraduate students announced a breakthrough in the design and optimization of an energy collection device, which utilizes the surrounding waste magnetic field to generate power. The device has received recognition for its innovative approach. Particularly noteworthy is the fact that this team of students won a prestigious award for their research, which focused on using a combination of friction and piezoelectric effects to collect mixed energy. This particular project was completed as the culmination of a high-level design course taken by the students in the previous semester.
At a poster exhibition, Ji-won Ye, a graduate student from the first master's program, won a major award for proposing a research direction suitable for flexible energy storage devices. By studying the electrical performance of ceramic thin films on substrates through photothermal treatment, Ye was able to improve their electrical properties.
A group of five undergraduate and graduate students, including Ho-young Lee, a fourth-year undergraduate, have developed a ceramic heater to improve the lifespan and safety of existing electronic cigarette heaters. This invention is suitable for small electronic devices and has won significant recognition and awards.
In addition, at the 2022 Engineering Ceramics Seminar held at the Xin'an Beach Hotel from June 30th to July 1st, Jiang Minzhi, a graduate student from the YU School of Materials Science and Engineering (enrolled in the 3rd master's program), and Sang-min Lee, a fourth-year undergraduate student, respectively received the Best Poster Award.
Their research has been evaluated as beneficial for the localization of aluminum oxide for use in the semiconductor and display industries, thereby reducing dependence on imported materials.
