Welcome to Hybrid Organic and Inorganic Semiconductor Research Center (HOISRC).

Dr. Gon Namkoong received his B.S. in the Department in Physics from Chonbuk National University,South Korea in 1996 and Ph.D. degree in the Department of Electrical and Computer Eingeering at the Georgia Institute of Technology in 2003. Dr. Namkoong then worked as Post Doctoral Fellow and Research Engineer II at the Georgia Institute of Technology till he jointed the Faculty of Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the ODU and ARC in 2007. Dr. Namkoong's research interest is in the development of hybrid organic/inorganic ZnO semiconductor, nitride/ZnO-based thin films, nanorods and their devices on innovative substrate materials as well as applying new nanoscale thin film growth techniques to facilitate material and device improvement. Dr. Namkoong has been intimately involved in the creation of nanoscale optoelectric/electronic devices and novel integration technologies to overcome current device performance limitations allowing for new levels of multifunctional devices. He has authored/co-authored over 60 research papers/presentations as well as numerous technical reports and invention disclosures.
