Biography
Dr. Hyeokmin Choe received his MSc in Solid State Physics from Kyung Hee University (South Korea) and obtained PhD in Crystallography and Solid State Physics from the University of Siegen (Germany). In 2019 he worked as a postdoc in the Tel Aviv University (Israel), in 2019-2022 was a postdoc in the NIST, Materials Measurement Laboratory / Euclid Techlabs LLC (USA). His research interest and expertise span fundamental and x-ray crystallography, physical properties of crystals, piezoelectrics and ferroelectrics, high-resolution x-ray diffraction and time-resolved x-ray diffraction studies of crystalline materials under external perturbation, application of synchrotron radiation. The research works are frequently performed at central synchrotron radiation facilities as PETRA III, BESSY II, ESRF and NSLS-II.
Research Interests
