The purpose of our laboratory is developed advanced functional glass-ceramic materials. They have attracted interest because of its excellent properties such as thermal resistance, chemical durability and mechanical strength, and high optical transmittance. We are engaged in research and development of transparent optoelectronics materials with nano structures. We especially focus on additive manufacturing(3D printer) of preparing functional glass from nanocomposite consisted from nano particle and organic polymer. The excellent characters of the novel transparent materials would be conducive to its use for next generation optoelectronics and bio industry fields (e.g., optical sensor, light guide, optical lens, microchip display).
