A Rochester team engineered a new type of solar thermoelectric generator that produces 15 times more power than earlier versions. By enhancing heat absorption and dissipation rather than tweaking semiconductor materials, they dramatically improved efficiency and demonstrated practical applications like powering LEDs.

A Smart Manufacturing and Data Analytics Group (https://sites.google.com/site/smandda/ or https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=OJtZt_YAAAAJ&hl=en) at University of Georgia, Athens is hiring PhD or Direct PhD students for the Summer/Fall 2026. Potential applicants (e.g., Spring 2027) can contact Dr. Duckbong Kim ([email protected]) to discuss their interests and possibilities. Tuition, stipend for PhD ($2,300-3,000/month) student and travel for conferences will be financially supported. Stipend/salary for post-doc ($50,000 to 60,000) and travel for conferences will be financially supported. 

Our research group focuses on smart manufacturing and data analytics, such as industrial automation and robotic welding, XR:AR/VR/MR, additive manufacturing (AM), computational modeling, machine learning, physical AI, and decision support. Among these, we are currently focusing on four main specific topics: 1) XR-based Smart Manufacturing, 2) Machine Learning and Computational Modeling, 3) Collaborative Robot, 4) Machine Vision-based Digital Inspection Methodology (e.g., Cognex, PLC, and NI), and 5) Materials Characterization.
