Hobby is Science: The Secrets of Light and the World of Ultrafast Spectroscopy... Airing on the Night of the 4th

EBS 'Hobby is Science' will broadcast the episode 'Optics, Why Analyze Light?' on Friday, the 4th at 10:50 PM via EBS 1TV. This episode will examine the properties of light and the scientific principles used to analyze it from various perspectives.

The broadcast features MC Defconn, along with Professor Lee Dae-han from the Department of Biological Sciences at Sungkyunkwan University, Professor Jang Hong-je from the Department of Chemistry at Kwangwoon University, science communicator Hang Seong, and Professor Lee Kwang-jin from the School of Semiconductor Physics at Korea University. The cast will explore the scientific secrets contained within light and discuss the history and technical value of spectroscopy.

What is covered in this episode

Professor Lee Kwang-jin explains that by analyzing light, it is possible to identify information about substances that are difficult to confirm with the naked eye. In particular, he introduces 'ultrafast spectroscopy' technology, which records the fleeting moment of one quadrillionth of a second, and explains the principles of capturing minute phenomena, such as the process where hydrogen and oxygen combine to become water. Furthermore, he presents the importance of spectroscopy in the development of 'perovskite,' which is gaining attention as a next-generation semiconductor material, and the future vision of 'photonic semiconductors' led by Korea.
