A short biography
Since 1991, Dr. Kwang-Ryeol Lee has been leading diamond-like carbon (DLC) research group. He has been studied both fundamental aspects and industrial application of the DLC coating technology. He succeeded in the technology transfer to industry of DLC coating technology to VCR head drum, IC forming and trimming die, dental and micro-drill, various sliding tools, and water-oil separation technology. From 2001, his research was extended to the computational nano-science to understand atomistic or sub-atomistic phenomena of materials, like interfacial intermixing during thin film growth or surface nanostructure evolution by ion bombardment. He served for many international conferences in both thin film technology and computational materials science. His recent interest is to develop a web-based computational research platform to design nano-materials and devices. As of Jan. 2021, he published about 270 papers with H index 49 (Google Scholar) and more than 60 patents. He received 4 times the Best Research Award of KIST in 1995, 1998, 2005, 2007, the Commendation of the Prime Minister of Korea in 2006, Two times of NanoKorea Award for Innovative Research in 2011 and 2016. His effort for building Nano Materials Design Platform was recognized by “2018 10 Nanotechnologies” award.
