About

Jiho Kang is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of medical robotics and nanoscale photothermal science. His work bridges two seemingly disparate fields: the commercialization of medical robotics and the fundamental physics of plasmonic nanocrystals. In his 2021 study on medical robotics technology commercialization, Kang developed a framework for translating robotic innovations from laboratory prototypes to clinical practice, earning 10 citations for its practical impact on healthcare technology transfer. More recently, Kang has made groundbreaking contributions to understanding photothermal dynamics in tin-doped indium oxide (ITO) nanocrystals. His 2025 study, already garnering attention with 2 citations, precisely maps how these plasmonic metal oxide nanocrystals convert infrared light into heat and dissipate it to their surroundings. By tracking heat generation and transfer in oleate-capped ITO nanocrystals dispersed in toluene, Kang has provided critical insights for applications in catalysis, therapeutics, and soft robotics. His dual expertise—spanning medical robotics commercialization and nanoscale heat transfer—positions him as a versatile innovator whose work connects fundamental materials science with real-world biomedical applications.
