2019 08 Open Positions (PhD students; posted on 8/9/2019)
We are seeking for talented PhD students (full financial supports are available) for the areas below.
1. 3D microstructured optoelectronic devices: fabrication & optical and electrical measurements
2. Flexible optoelectronic sensors: design, fabrication, and characterizations
Successful candidates would have a MS degree in engineering or related field (e.g., physics, chemistry) and are a team player. We encourage applicants, who can fully dedicate to their projects.
Please send an email to Dr. Yoon (heayoung.yoon@utah.edu) including three PDF files: resume, phone/email information of two references, and research statement. The statement should describe (i) why you want to join our group, and (ii) how you can contribute to our group.

2019 06 EMC Talks
We attended the EMC conference and gave talks. Along with the technical discussions, we enjoyed the beautiful summer time and the festival at Ann Arbor, MI.
2019 06 Having fun with solar cars (Hi-GEAR)
Yoon research group hosted high-school campers participating the Hi-GEAR program (High School-Girls Engineering Abilities Realized) at the University of Utah. We assembled solar cars and watched them working under sunlight. A nice sunny day was perfect for exploring the integrated technology (solar + robotics).
