​Light makes our life shine

Our group pursues to understand the light-matter interaction at the nano-/micro-scales and find a new light-related phenomenon.

​

Based on the novel light phenomena, we are on a mission to advance new photonic materials and next-generation optoelectronics for the contributions to the fields of energy, security, sensing, bio-medical devices, and imaging systems.

​

Specifically, our research encompasses from photonic material level (e.g., nanophotonics and metasurfaces)  to optical device/system level (e.g., energy-saving systems and bio-inspired imaging systems).

​

We imagine our future society full of safety and prosperity by the light-related technologies.

Cuttlefish-inspired artificial vision

Cuttlefish, which is one of aquatic animal living under shallow water, has a unique W-shaped pupil and polarization-recognizable receptors. We have implemented the artificial vision by imitating these features for a sensor of autonomous driving.
