"Professor Bae-ho Park graduated from Seoul National University (Physics) and
obtained a doctoral degree at the graduate school of the same university.
He is a world-renowned physicist in the areas of condensed matter physics and nanoscience."

Using the atomic force microscopy (AFM) friction mapping, Professor Park discovered the domain in graphene with a significantly different friction force (friction anisotropy-driven domain), and is carrying out research on the structural development of new devices and the properties of new nanomaterials that are applied to next generation electronic devices.

Moreover, Professor Park discovered the reasons of fatigue in ferroelectric materials and succeeded in creating nanodevices using BiFeO3, which can be applied to make next generation high-performance memory and solar cells. He also explored the phenomena of giant resistance switching effects that determine the characteristics of a next generation resistance switching memory.

Professor Park is a next generation scientist who will lead the field of physics in South Korea, astonishing the academia by inviting the World Class University (WCU) project, sole in the field of physics, to Konkuk University. As he developed nanolithography techniques using the atomic force microscopy (AFM), he is expected to contribute to realizing graphene nanodevices with diverse functions in the future.
