Enhancing Magnetism and Mechanical Robustness of FeCo-based High-Entropy Alloys

Principal Investigators & Key Members:
Le Van Lich, PhD
This project aims to develop new high-entropy alloys (HEAs) that combine high strength with excellent magnetic performance, we aim to reduce dependence on scarce and expensive rare-earth elements. The outcomes will support the development of more efficient electric motors, generators, and renewable-energy technologies, contributing to a more sustainable and resilient future.
Integrated 2D Semiconductors for Quantum Optomechanical Sensing (i2D)

Integrated 2D Semiconductors for Quantum Optomechanical Sensing (i2D)

Principal Investigators & Key Members:
Nguyen Tuan Dung, PhD
This project develops ultrathin, ultrasensitive optomechanical sensors for medical and defence applications by integrating Silicon Carbide nanofilms with atomically thin 2D materials and controlling charge-carrier quantum dynamics at heterojunctions. The approach overcomes rigidity and sensitivity limits of current solid-state sensors, enabling advances in ultrasensitive sensing and wearable miniaturisation. The outcomes will strengthen Vietnam’s semiconductor workforce and technical capacity, delivering significant social and economic benefits.
In-situ optical monitoring of monolayer MoS2 via micro-CVD and its application in optoelectronic devices and stabilized high-efficiency perovskite solar cells

In-situ optical monitoring of monolayer MoS2 via micro-CVD and its application in optoelectronic devices and stabilized high-efficiency perovskite solar cells

Principal Investigators & Key Members:
Vu Khac Dat, PhD
Two-dimensional semiconductors like monolayer MoS₂ are crucial for next-generation sensing, computing, and energy technologies, but reproducible synthesis remains a major obstacle. This project uses a micro-CVD system with real-time optical monitoring to visualize growth processes and establish reliable monolayer formation. The resulting high-quality MoS₂ will be integrated into perovskite solar cells and devices such as photodetectors and FETs.
