Noh Do Young is a South Korean physicist specializing in condensed matter physics and materials science using synchrotrons and XFELs. He has developed and applied various frontier X-ray diffraction methods to study condensed matter systems, including recent coherent X-ray diffraction imaging technique. His research has utilized a number of synchrotron radiation facilities, such as Advanced Photon Source, SPring-8, National Synchrotron Light Source, PLS, and X-ray free electron lasers, including SCALA and PAL-XFEL.
Most of his career has been at the Gwangju Institute of Science and Technology (GIST) where he was a physics professor, dean of GIST College, and director of the Center for Advanced X-ray Science and the GIST National Core Research Center. He has also served as member of the Korea Research Council of Fundamental Science Technology before becoming the president of the Korea Synchrotron Radiation User's Association. He is a council member of the Presidential Advisory Council for Science and Technology, and the third president of the Institute for Basic Science.
