research KAIST Finds Clue to Solving the “Electrical Bottleneck” in Semiconductors
When the pathways through which electricity flows inside a semiconductor become blocked, device performance declines and power loss increases. A Korean research team has developed a new structure that could resolve this “electrical bottleneck” and, for the first time, directly confirmed that electric charges flow continuously without interruption. This achievement is expected to become a key technology for improving the performance and power efficiency of future semiconductors, inc

research KAIST Develops AI Technology to Detect Early Warning Signs of Cerebrovascular Disease at Home
Cerebrovascular disease can lead to serious aftereffects if treatment is delayed, but it is difficult to detect before symptoms appear. KAIST researchers have developed an AI technology that analyzes real-life daily activity and environmental data from older adults to identify digital behavioral markers of cerebrovascular disease risk based on subtle changes at home. KAIST (President Choongsik Bae) announced on the 12th of July that a research team led by Professor Lisa Lim from the Departm

research KAIST Study Finds Politically Salient Immigration Issues Can Lead to Higher Industrial Pollution
When immigration or refugee issues become heated political topics, nearby factories may end up releasing more toxic substances. Although the two phenomena may appear unrelated, a KAIST-led international research team has found that they are in fact connected through the government’s limited administrative and fiscal resources. KAIST (President Choongsik Bae) announced on the 10th of July that a joint research team led by Professor Narae Lee from The School of Business and Technology

research KAIST Automates the Search for “Dream Semiconductor” 2D Semiconductors
The era of researchers manually searching for two-dimensional semiconductors, which are drawing attention as next-generation AI semiconductors, is coming to an end. KAIST researchers have automated semiconductor screening and device fabrication, analyzed thousands of devices, and revealed the relationship between thickness and performance that had long been difficult to identify. This achievement is expected to shift next-generation semiconductor research toward a data-driven approach and acce

research KAIST Develops Core Display Technology That Prevents Image Distortion Even When Stretched
Beyond bendable and foldable displays, the era of stretchable displays, whose screens can expand freely like rubber, is now emerging. KAIST researchers have developed a core technology that allows text, images, and other on-screen information to retain their original shape even when the screen is stretched by up to 15%. The achievement is expected to help solve the problem of image distortion and accelerate the commercialization of next-generation high-quality stretchable displays. KAIST (P
