  • Biography

    Dr. Wonbong Choi is a tenured, full professor in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at University of North Texas, Denton. He joined the department in July 2012 after his work in Florida International University (FIU) as a tenured full professor. He joined FIU as an Associate Professor in the Mechanical and Materials Engineering Department in June 2003. Dr. Choi obtained his Ph.D in Materials Science and Engineering from the North Carolina State University (NCSU) in 1997. In period spanning from 1988 to 1993, he worked as a Research Scientist at Agency Defense & Development in fine ceramic-metal composites materials. After his PhD, Dr. Choi worked in the industry research laboratory as a senior researcher and project manager at Samsung (SAIT). He was a leading scientist in the “Carbon Nanotubes for Tera-level Nano electronics Device” project with more than $1.0 M/year support from SAMSUNG and the Government of Korea. He was also involved in the field emission display project at SAMSUNG (SAIT), leading the team investigating the carbon nanotube flat panel display.

    Choi has been awarded the prestigious Materials Research Society (MRS) Medal for 2006 “for important developments in the materials science and applications of carbon nanotubes”. Dr. Choi awarded MRS fellow as the youngest person named as a Fellow in 2009; the title of MRS Fellow honors members of the Materials Research Society who are notable for their distinguished research accomplishments and their outstanding contributions to the advancement of materials research, world-wide. The maximum number of new Fellow appointments each year is limited to 0.2% of the current MRS membership.

    One of the remarkable achievements in his research career was the invention of “Carbon Nanotube Field Emission Display”, which was reported in Scienceand was covered extensively by news media around the world. His work has led to a recent demonstration by SAMSUNG of over 40-inch field emission flat panel display. In addition, Dr. Choi is credited to developing the large-scale 2D MoS2 film, single molecular DNA-sensor, high efficiency Li-ion battery based on carbon nanotubes, graphene based flexible field emission display, vertical CNT-Field Effect Transistor and CNT based non-volatile memory devices. He has been involved in various cooperative projects such as dye sensitized solar cells, Li-ion battery and lab-on-a-chip to name a few. His innovations, reported as news in the TRN News (January 2002), MIT’s Magazine (June 2003), Analytical Chemistry (2006), Nanowerk (2007), Nature Nanotechnology (2008) and TMS (2011), were the first to show some practical ways of making nanomaterials based devices.

    He has successfully conducted numerous granted projects in the domain of nanotechnology funded by AFOSR, DARPA, NSF, SRC, DOE and Samsung. Dr. Choi is the author/co-author of over 80 patents, 1 book (“GRAPHENE” CRC Press 2011), 11 book chapters, over 230 publications, which includes 140 peer-reviewed journal articles and 80 conference proceedings. His research articles have been cited ~11,000 times with H-index of 51 (Google Scholar). He has been invited to share his technological findings and knowhow at many international conferences, MRS, TMS, IEEE, SPIE, APS and so on.  He has served as a chair/committee member for several international meetings including MRS, IEEE-Nano, TMS-Nano symposium and US-Korea meetings. He serves as a reviewer for more than 20 international journals and also serves on the Editorial Board of 5 journals including the International Journal of Nanoparticles and Nanotechnology (Elsevier).

    • 2012: Graphene Book has Published (ISBN: 978-1-4398-6187-5, CRC Press) Graphene, one-atom-thick planar sheet of carbon atoms densely packed in a honeycomb crystal lattice, has revolutionized the scientific frontiers in nanoscience and condensed matter physics due to its exceptional electrical, physical and chemical properties. Expected as a possible replacement for silicon in electronics and applications in many other advanced technology, graphene has brought enormous interest of many research groups around the world resulting in abruptly high number of publications and recently in Noble Prize in Physics. This book, edited by Prof. Wonbong Choi and Dr, Jo-won Lee, aims to present an overview of the advancement of research in graphene, in the area of synthesis, properties and applications, such as electronics, heat dissipation, field emission, sensors, composite and energy. Eleven chapters have been presented by experts from each research area.
