Seunguk Song, Ph.D., is a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Pennsylvania’s Department of Electrical and Systems Engineering. He earned his Ph.D. in Materials Science and Engineering from the Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology (UNIST) in Korea. His work aims to address unresolved issues in semiconductor science and technology. To this end, he is conducting research in electronics, optoelectronic devices, and the synthesis of 2D transition metal chalcogenides. Specifically, he specializes in the precise epitaxy of various 2D semiconductors and heterostructures, and in the creation of atomic-scale devices for use in sub-thermionic transistors, emerging memory devices, and quantum technology. Dr. Song was awarded the Korea Global Ph.D. Fellowship in 2016, the Korea National Research Foundation Postdoctoral Fellowship in 2021, the Korea Conference on Semiconductors (KCS) Thesis Award in 2018, and the KCS SK-Hynix Award in 2021 for his commitment to advancing the fields of nanoelectronics and photonics. In his free time, he enjoys traveling, reading, staying updated with scientific research, and watching soccer matches.

Dongjoon is a Postdoctoral Researcher who joined the Jariwala Group in September 2022. He received his B.S. in Materials Science and Engineering from Hanyang University, South Korea, in 2013, and M.S. and Ph.D. in Materials Science and Engineering from Northwestern University in 2016 and 2021. His graduate research focused on multiscale patterning based on controlled surface wrinkling instabilities under supervision of Prof. Teri W. Odom. Prior to joining the Jariwala Group, he worked on solution-processed 2D materials and their electronics/optoelectronics applications as a Postdoctoral Researcher in Prof. Joohoon Kang’s group at Sungkyunkwan University, South Korea. His current research focuses on excitonic metasurfaces based on solution-processed 2D materials.
Hyunmin (Kyle) Cho
Hyunmin is a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Pennsylvania. He earned his B.S.(2018) and his Ph.D.(2023) in Physics , both from Yonsei University in South Korea. During his doctoral studies, he focused on developing two-dimensional semiconductor-based negative capacitance transistors by reducing contact resistance. His research interests lie in electronic devices that use two-dimensional semiconductors and ferroelectric materials. His current research aims to understand the operational mechanisms of these advanced electronic devices through mathematical analysis.
