Sang Bok Lee
Assistant Professor, Chemistry and Biochemistry
University of Maryland
Professor Lee is advancing new methods of nanoconstruction which exploit electrochemistry and self-assembly to make highly controlled nanotubes and nanowires. This "template synthesis" approach enables construction with a broad range of materials, tailoring of nanocomponent shapes as well as dimensions, and functionalization and release of the nanostructures. Applications include low-power displays on flexible substrates, nanosensors/biosensors, biochemical separation, and most recently the fabrication of nanoparticles as drug delivery systems which target disease sites and can be imaged in clinical situations.
