- About 5,500 students participated in the first semester of our university.
- About 5,500 students participated in the first semester of our university. - Operation such as innovative convergence classes, various comparative programs, and internships for corporate field training. - A total of 5,500 Bachelor's, Master's and Doctor's participants. Our university said it successfully operated this year's newly introduced challenging semester for 10 weeks from 6.22 (Monday) to 8.28 (Friday) in line with the Untact era environment in order to provide high-quality classes and opportunities for various hands-on activities in areas that students usually have difficulty accessing. The challenge semester system was introduced this year to focus on providing various programs for our universities, which have increased their summer vacation from two months to three months (this year, 10 weeks due to the Corona 19). It consists largely of a curriculum, a comparative course, an internship, and an international exchange program, all of which are free of charge. Corona 19 prevented the international exchange program from running this semester, and the curriculum and non-textbook programs were 100% online. The curriculum is run as an innovative convergence class in addition to the existing summer seasonal classes, and students can take up to three credits. Fourteen courses in convergent classes across fields, including "Ponosapiens," "Professor Choi Jae-bung," "Data Science and Social Data Analysis" (Professor Kim Jang-hyun), and "Creative Reason for Humanities" (Professor Kim Yong-seok), have been opened, with about 2,000 participants. In the comparative program, 23 programs were operated in areas that students had never experienced, including "Platinum Lecture in the Challenge Semester" (Professor Dennis Hong) and "Building Machine Learning and Deep Learning Foundation" (Professor Oh Ha-young), and about 2,400 people participated in the program, adding to the excitement. A total of four internship programs were operated, including corporate field training, problem-solving projects and research experiences, with 1,770 applicants and 667 participants. Starting next semester, our university will secure 12 weeks during the vacation period to drastically expand internship programs and promote international exchange programs in earnest. President Shin Dong-ryul said, "Although we are suffering worldwide due to the Corona 19, we have not dampened our students' enthusiasm to explore a better future," and added, "We will continue to plan various programs with interest so that students can have various experiences in the future."

- Development of Sensory Adapting Mimicking Neuromophic Phototransistor by two SKKU Research Teams
- Hong Sung-in (Professor Kim Sun-guk's Research Team) in the Department of New Material Engineering, Dr. Choi Seung-hee (Professor Yoon Dae-ho's research team), Development of Sensory Adapting Mimicking Neuromophic Phototransistor - Photoreceptor compliance sensor using phase separation material by light - Expected application of the new neuromorphic chip Dr. Hong Sung-in (first author, professor Kim Sun-guk's research team) and Dr. Choi Seung-hee (co-author, research team of Professor Yoon Dae-ho) of the New Material Engineering Department announced that they have developed a neuromophic photo-transistor that mimics human sensory compliance through joint research. Recently, research on five-sensitivity-enhancing electronic devices and materials linking humans and electronic devices has been actively conducted, and the role of smart interfaces that help them like artificial eyes, artificial skin, and artificial nose is proposed when the function of five-sensitivity is not working well. In particular, image sensors in charge of human eyes are manufactured using silicon, III-V materials. However, conventional image sensors simply had the ability to distinguish by reading colors, so they could not imitate human photoreceptor conformations. Optical receptor conformance refers to placing a counterweight on the repetitive signals around them to conform to them and to read other signals. For example, when entering a dark place, the human eye adapts to the darkness to distinguish between different colors. From the point of view of Neurological Engineering, which imitates the behavior of the nervous system, the current research trends are limited to synaptic behavior, requiring new neuromorphic devices such as receptors or nervous systems. The researchers predicted that the sensory adaptation photo-transistor would be an attractive neurologic device. The research team developed a phototransistor based on the heterocompatibility of ferrovskite-electrometallic calcogen compounds, and developed a photo-sensor that mimics human photoreceptor conforming behavior by using the phase separation characteristic by light of ferrovskite. The research team found that the dual complex of halide perovskite nanocrystalline structures and two-dimensional nanoparboard materials, in which phase separation occurs during light reactions, demonstrates optic neural network simulation behavior that can selectively adapt to RGB light sources. [See Figure 2] Furthermore, materials with various band structures can be produced by adjusting the composition and composition ratio of halide ferrovskite based on the theory of density function in the first principle, and the change of band gap was identified by comparing materials that maximize phase separation effect. [See Figure 3] Using this technology, it can develop an artificial intelligence image sensor that can detect or adapt only certain colors depending on the input of external light. Existing endoscopes suggest the possibility of developing intelligent image sensors that can more easily detect lesions that were difficult to distinguish due to red blood where bleeding occurred. [See Figure 4]

- A Study on the Systematic Management of the Learning Results of Comparative Activities of Students in this School
- A Study on the Systematic Management of the Learning Results of Comparative Activities of Students in this School Open Challenge Square for Student Success Portfolio System - Integration and management of internal and external comparative activities throughout the previous period of students' college life - Students have a quick, at-a-glance view of their capabilities to design effective college life and career roadmaps Our university said it has opened Challenge Square, a portfolio system for student success, for systematic management of student comparative activities and learning outcomes. Challenge Square is a comprehensive computer support system that integrates and manages internal and external learning outcomes throughout the previous period of student college life. It systematically manages various activities of students, including club activities, volunteer activities, scholarship activities, international exchanges, mentoring, contests, and seminars. Our university plans to use Challenge Square to analyze student success factors based on big data to support students' successful college life and help them advance into society. Students can use the system to systematically manage their learning outcomes, as well as look back on their own capabilities by comparing and analyzing them with other students. You can systematically prepare for your career by checking the status of your comparative course completion compared to other students in the same department and in the same grade, and how different the average rating and comparative activities are compared to students who are employed in the desired job category. We can also examine the possibility of scholarship benefits in advance. In this way, students can effectively design their college life because they can see their strengths and weaknesses at a glance through the system, and further build a career roadmap that suits them based on comprehensive career information based on data-based information. "Until now, students' data have tended to be managed with a focus on their grades and other curriculum activities," said Kim Dong-wook, head of the school's education office. "Challenge Square will provide a foundation for students to design their college lives more effectively and enter society by establishing a database throughout the entire university life cycle, including non-disciplinary activities as well as subjects."

- Professor Chung Hyun-suk Material Engineering, Development of Lead Waste Technology with Perovskite Solar Cell
- Professor Chung Hyun-suk's research team from the Department of New Material Engineering, Development of Lead Waste Control Technology for Visibility into the Perovskite Solar Cell Market - Providing technology for recycling lead waste discharged during the Perovskite solar cell production process - Expect environmental alertness mitigation of perovskite lead waste The research team led by Professor Chung Hyun-suk (Dr. Park So-yeon, the first author of the new material engineering department) announced that it has developed a technology for recycling ferrobskite solar cells, including lead waste control, in order to escape environmental regulations, which are the main obstacles to commercialization of ferrobscite solar cells, along with a joint research team led by Professor Kim Dong-hoi of Sejong University (Singer) and Professor Park Ji-sang of Kyungpook National University. Perovskite solar cells have surpassed the limits of 25 percent efficiency of commercial thin film solar cells (multi-crystal silicon solar cells, CdTe, CIGS, etc.) and are believed to be at the forefront of next-generation solar cell research to be commercialized. However, in order for perovskite solar cells to be used in the market, eco-friendly problems must be solved. This is because perovskite photosensor uses lead, a heavy metal substance, as its main ingredient. While studies have focused on finding materials that can replace lead to solve this problem, they have shown significantly lower efficiency than perovskite solar cells, including lead, and have failed to provide a fundamental solution. In response, the researchers focused on the development of lead waste treatment and recycling processes that occur during the production process of ferrovskite solar cells and the recycling process of ferrovskite solar cells that have reached their end of life. In particular, lead wastes generated during the ferrovskite solar cell production process and recycling are mainly non-positive solvents, and lead ions in the solution have positive charges, and lead ions can be absorbed/removed through surface adsorption mechanisms, and hydroxyapatite, an eco-friendly material that has also been noted as an artificial bone material, was introduced as a lead absorbent. To improve the lead ion adsorption characteristics and to ensure the ease of the lead component collection process, the researchers successfully synthesized a surface modified magnetic hydroxyapatite complex and achieved the efficiency of removing lead components from waste to a level that could satisfy the US Environmental Protection Agency lead standard (15 ppb or less). Furthermore, the researchers succeeded in separating lead ions from lead ions and reproducing PbI2 at 99.97% yield using the fact that the solubility of PbI2 and pH, which are the main components of hydrofluorinated and ferrovskite production, are significantly different from those of PbI2, which are similar to commercial PbI2. The research team's technology is indispensable in the commercialization of technology and research using harmful chemicals, and it is expected that it will not only contribute to the commercialization of ferrovskite solar cells, but also present new research directions for many technologies that have been found to have excellent performance but have not been commercialized due to environmental regulations. This research was carried out with the support of the Future Challenge Technology Project of the Agency for Defense Development, Global Frontier Project, Natural Simulation Innovation Technology Development Project, Alkimist Project, and Basic Research Project of the Korea Research Foundation, and the results of the research were published 8.4(Tue) in the international journal Nature Sustainability. ※ Name of thesis: Sustainable lead management in halide perovskite solar cells
