About
Jihyun Bae is a researcher specializing in wearable electronics, flexible sensing systems, and smart textile technologies, with a focus on bridging human-machine interfaces through innovative materials and device design. Their most influential work centers on developing next-generation sensor platforms that conformally integrate with the human body, spanning electronic skins, thermoelectric devices, and textile-based systems. Bae's most cited contribution, a multi-functional field-effect transistor sensor array for bio-monitoring (91 citations), demonstrated ultrahigh sensitivity in simultaneously discerning mechanical and thermal stimuli — emulating the sensory capabilities of human skin. This work laid important groundwork for adaptive e-skin technologies. A subsequent landmark study (86 citations) introduced scalable, stretchable thermoelectric fabrics capable of self-powered temperature sensing, addressing longstanding manufacturing challenges in wearable systems. More recently, Bae has advanced smart textile interfaces through digital knitting fabrication, developing seamless smart gloves and knitted data glove systems for hand gesture recognition and finger motion classification. These contributions highlight a sustained commitment to making wearable technology practical, comfortable, and manufacturable. Collectively, Bae's research offers meaningful advances toward autonomous, skin-integrated sensing systems with real-world applications in healthcare monitoring and human-computer interaction.
