Dr. Ryu on "Aerospace America"

March 2019


Dr. Ryu's new invention on his mechano-luminescent-optoelectronic composites (MLO) has been featured on "Aerospace America." He is currently in the process of patenting the MLO composite material, which will be used for aerospace technologies. 

MLO Composite material
 

A mechano-luminescent-optoelectronic, MLO, composite combines a mechano-luminescent material, which gloes under strain, with a mechano-optoelectronic material, which generates current when exposed to light. NASA and university researchers are on the brink of having a new approach to structural health monitoring due to the newly developed patent on the invention by Dr. Ryu. Read the article here.
