The Smart Sensors and Devices Lab (SSD Lab – https://smartsensors.vn/ ) at the School of Materials Science and Engineering, Hanoi University of Science and Technology, includes key members: Professor Nguyen Duc Hoa, Associate Professors Dang Thi Thanh Le, Associate Professor Nguyen Van Duy, Associate Professor Chu Manh Hung, Dr. Chu Thị Xuân, and Dr. Nguyen Van Toan. This lab focuses on the research and development of advanced smart sensors and devices, addressing various technical challenges with a diverse range of approaches.

Key research areas of the SSD Lab include:

  1. Development of Ultra-Sensitive Gas Sensors: Research on gas sensors capable of detecting extremely low concentrations of gases, especially for safety monitoring of Li-Ion batteries, environmental applications, and industrial use.
  2. Biological and Medical Sensors: Development of biological sensors that can quickly detect important biological indicators in medicine, such as glucose, hormones, and disease markers, to assist in health diagnosis and monitoring.
  3. Optical and Thermal Sensors: Investigation of optical and thermal sensors for applications in temperature monitoring, fire detection, and energy management.
  4. Flexible and Integrated Sensors: Focus on developing flexible sensors that can be bent and easily integrated into wearable devices, smart clothing, and other non-traditional sensor systems.
  5. New Sensor Materials: Research and development of new materials with superior properties, such as nanomaterials, 2D materials, and metal oxide compounds, to enhance the sensitivity and stability of sensors.
  6. Smart Sensor Systems: Development of integrated sensor systems with advanced signal processing capabilities, combining artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning to improve detection, diagnosis, and self-adjustment.
  7. MEMS Technology Applications: The SSD Lab also explores microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technologies to create ultra-small sensors with high performance for a variety of applications, from industrial and environmental to medical fields.
