About
Hyeokjun Lee’s research sits at the dynamic intersection of stretchable electronics, thermoelectric materials, and multimodal sensing for wearable technology. His most notable contribution is the development of a highly stretchable thermoelectric fiber that incorporates copper(I) iodide nanoparticles, enabling a single device to simultaneously detect temperature, strain, and pressure. This breakthrough addresses a critical challenge in wearable electronics: creating robust, flexible sensors that can conform to moving body parts while maintaining high sensitivity. The work, published in *Advanced Functional Materials* and featured as a cover article, has already garnered early citations, signaling its growing influence in the field. Lee’s innovation is particularly compelling for its practical application—demonstrated by integration into a robotic hand, where the sensor provides real-time, multimodal feedback. By merging inorganic thermoelectrics with stretchable fiber architectures, he opens new pathways for soft robotics, prosthetics, and health-monitoring textiles. For students and researchers, Lee’s work exemplifies how clever materials engineering can transform rigid, single-function sensors into versatile, body-compatible systems, pushing the boundaries of what wearable electronics can achieve.
