Graduate students from the Department of Physics at Ewha Womans University received awards at the 2025 Autumn Meeting of the Korean Physical Society and the 2025 International Conference on Advanced Materials and Devices (ICAMD).
Doctoral student Kim Hyerin (Advisor: Professor Choi Taeyoung), integrated master’s–doctoral student Lee Hyunji (Advisor: Professor Noh Kwangdong), and master’s student Lee Jiyoon (QNS, IBS) received the Outstanding Oral Presentation Award at the 2025 Autumn Meeting of the Korean Physical Society, held from Tuesday, October 21 to Saturday, October 25, at the Kimdaejung Convention Center in Gwangju. In addition, integrated program student Kim Hyunsu (Advisor: Professor Choi Taeyoung) and doctoral student Kim Yeonji (QNS, IBS) each received the Outstanding Poster Presentation Award.
At this conference, a total of 1,453 presentations were delivered, including 3 plenary lectures, 325 invited talks, 554 general oral presentations, and 574 poster presentations. This marked the largest number of presentations since the 70th anniversary autumn meeting of the Korean Physical Society in 2022, providing a broad platform for sharing cutting-edge research成果 and fostering extensive academic exchange.
Kim Hyerin presented her research titled “Two-qubit entanglement with pulse-shaped MS gate in trapped 171Yb ions,” which demonstrated the high-fidelity implementation of quantum entangling gates, a core component of quantum computing. Lee Hyunji presented “Enhanced Amplified Spontaneous Emission by SnO₂ Interlayer for Halide Perovskite Thin Films,” reporting improved amplified spontaneous emission characteristics in halide perovskite thin films achieved through the introduction of an SnO₂ interlayer. Lee Jiyoon presented “Photo-assisted tautomerization of free-base phthalocyanine on NaCl/Ag(111) with optics integrated scanning tunneling microscope,” which reported the observation of light-induced changes in the positions of hydrogen atoms within phthalocyanine molecules using a scanning tunneling microscope.
Kim Hyunsu presented “Implementing Entangled States via AWG-based Control in Trapped-Ion Quantum Processors,” showcasing research on realizing high-fidelity quantum entangled states through precise control of ion-qubit Hamiltonians using an arbitrary waveform generator (AWG). Kim Yeonji presented “On-axis parabolic mirror based free-beam optics combined scanning probe microscopy,” which introduced research combining free-beam optics based on a parabolic mirror with scanning probe microscopy.

Meanwhile, integrated program student Cho Jungyoon (Advisor: Professor Kim Dongwook) from the Department of Physics received the Best Poster Presentation Award at the International Conference on Advanced Materials and Devices (ICAMD), held from Monday, December 8 to Friday, December 12, at the BEXCO Convention Hall in Busan, Republic of Korea.
ICAMD is hosted biennially by the Applied Physics Division of the Korean Physical Society, and the 2025 conference marked its 14th edition. The conference covers key topics at the forefront of physics and engineering, including two-dimensional van der Waals materials, nanomaterials and devices, organic electronic and optoelectronic devices, neuromorphic devices, energy materials and devices, quantum information, and artificial intelligence. ICAMD 2025 featured a total of 1,149 presentations, including 210 oral presentations and 736 poster presentations, and was attended by 1,447 participants from 21 countries, contributing to active academic exchange and strengthened international research networks.
Cho Jungyoon presented experimental results titled “Plasmon-enhanced light emission and charge transfer in MoS₂ monolayers on paired Au nanowires,” which examined how single and dimer structures of Au nanowires exert different optical and electrical effects on the photoluminescence of MoS₂, a representative two-dimensional semiconductor material.
