ABSTRACT
Abstract
This presentation will focus on two nanofabrication techniques that we have recently demonstrated, namely template stripping for making ultra-smooth patterned metals and atomic layer lithography for making sub-nanometer gaps. Applications of optical nanostructures produced via these methods will be presented, including nanoplasmonic sensing, near-field optical microscopy of single molecules, and visible/IR/terahertz spectroscopy.
Biography
Sang-Hyun Oh obtained his B.Sc. in Physics from KAIST, Korea and his PhD in Applied Physics from Stanford University, in 1996 and 2001 respectively. After postdoctoral research at Bell Laboratories and the University of California at Santa Barbara, he joined the ECE department of the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities, in 2006. He is currently an Associate Professor of ECE and runs a lab focused on plasmonics, nanofabrication, and biosensing. He is a recipient of the Young Faculty Awards from DARPA, the Office of Naval Research, NSF CAREER, the American Chemical Society, and the 3M Corporation.
