Professor Dong-Ha Kim received Ph.D. degree in the Department of Fiber and Polymer Science at Seoul National University. He carried out postdoctoral research activities in the Polymer Science and Engineering Department at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst and at the Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research. After postdoctoral works, he joined Samsung Electronics Co. in the Memory Division of Semiconductor R & D Center as a senior scientist. Then he assumed a faculty position in the Department of Chemistry and Nano Science at Ewha Womans University in 2006. His research interests include development of multi-functional hybrid nanostructures for energy storage and conversion, environmental remediation, memory devices, display devices, and optical biosensing. Surface plasmon resonance mediated theragnosis, photovoltaics, photocatalysis and light emission are also his lasting interests. He has authored 200 peer-reviewed SCI publications and holds 48 Korean and 2 international patents. He serves as Associate Editor of Nanoscale, Nanoscale Advances, Opto-electronic Advances, Journal of Materials Chemistry A and Science of Advanced Materials. He also contribute to Materials Advances, Nanoscale Horizons, Catalysts and Scientific Reports as advisory/editorial board member. He is currently Fellow of RSC and Ewha Fellow.
