SKKU research team unravels the origin of stochasticity, a key to next-generation data security and computing

The study reveals the fundamental origin of stochasticity in memristor devices, which has been poorly understood. The researchers developed a scanning thermal microscopy technique to directly observe the heat signals generated during resistive switching events, revealing multiple conductive filaments and electrothermal effects.

Sungkyunkwan University researchers develop next-generation transparent electrode without rare metal indium

Researchers at Sungkyunkwan University have developed a novel transparent electrode technology that eliminates the use of rare metal indium, increasing device lifetime by doubling its performance. The new NTO-based electrode achieves high external quantum efficiency and long-term stability, making it suitable for mass production.

Professor Jo Woon Chong’s team at Sungkyunkwan University uncovered the secret of luxury brand fragrances through EEG (brainwave) analysis

A Sungkyunkwan University team led by Professor Jo Woon Chong found that luxury fragrances can enhance consumers' emotional stability and brand memory when aligned with the brand image. In contrast, incongruent conditions can lead to unexpected impressions and a stronger sense of 'brand resonance'.

Paradigm shift in immune checkpoint biology

A recent study reveals that PD-L1 functions beyond immune regulation to regulate intracellular signaling pathways within cancer cells. The research team identified a novel molecular mechanism by which PD-L1 directly regulates autophagy signaling, leading to reduced cell proliferation and suppressed tumor growth in lung cancer models.

Sungkyunkwan University team led by Professor Taesung Kim pioneers next-generation AI semiconductors with a “thermal constraining” technique

Researchers developed a technology that precisely controls the internal structure of semiconductors using heat, enabling faster AI computations with reduced electricity. The approach improves the performance of next-generation artificial intelligence hardware.

World’s first AI-based optical diagnostic platform to distinguish nasal secretion from cerebrospinal fluid

A research team developed an AI-based optical diagnostic platform that can distinguish between nasal secretion and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaking within minutes. The platform achieved an exceptionally high diagnostic accuracy of 90.8% in identifying CSF leakage, overcoming the challenge of visually indistinguishable fluids.
