Welcome to the Kim Lab at the National University of Singapore (NUS). We are interdisciplinary scientists and engineers, aiming to understand and design electrolytes and electrochemical systems for energy and sustainability.

Our Research

In our group, we understand and design electrolytes and electrochemical systems for energy and sustainability. We develop and use advanced characterization tools to understand electrolytes at the molecular level. We use these fundamental insights to design new electrolytes for various applications. We also use machine learning approaches to understand and design electrolytes and electrochemical systems. Application areas include energy storage, CO2 capture and sustainable manufacturing.

We are hiring!

The Kim Lab will kick off in July 2025 and we are looking for talented prospective postdoctoral scholars and PhD students to conduct electrochemical engineering for novel energy and sustainability applications. Background in chemical engineering, materials science, chemistry, applied physics or other related fields, as well as prior experience in electrochemistry, materials characterization and device fabrication are preferred. Interested candidates should contact Sang Cheol (sckimlab@gmail.com) with a CV for more information.
