Sunae Seo

Sunae Seo is a Research Professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at Sejong University, South Korea. Her research focuses on 2D materials, graphene, and their applications in nanoelectronics and neuromorphic memory. She has extensive experience in experimental physics and device engineering.

• Ph.D. in Physics, Seoul National University (1996)
• M.S. and B.S. in Physics, Seoul National University (1991, 1989)

Her research explores transport properties of 2D materials like graphene and transition metal dichalcogenides (TMD), with emphasis on hetero-structure engineering, doping techniques, and memory device applications. Recent work involves topological photonic crystals, exciton-polaritons in WSe2, and van der Waals vertical tunnel junctions.

Key trends in her publications include advanced graphene interconnects, resistive switching mechanisms, and optoelectronic device fabrication. She collaborates internationally, including a 2014 visiting scholar appointment at Stanford University and early research at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL).

Professor Seo teaches graduate and undergraduate courses in semiconductor device physics and general physics. Her lab develops scalable methods for graphene synthesis, contact engineering, and memory device reliability analysis.
