Hanbat National University · Materials Science & Engineering

Designing metals
for what comes next.

The lab

From atomic-scale mechanisms to engineering components.

We connect first-principles calculations, atom-probe characterization, and neutron scattering with real engineering challenges in joining, additive manufacturing, and materials for extreme environments.

About the lab
Research

Five directions,
one goal: better metals.

Surface science, processing, and microstructure–property relationships — with a focus on dissimilar-material systems where interfaces govern everything.
