Research interests:

Novel materials, ceramics and catalysts. Relationship between structure and properties of materials.
In-situ studies of structural evolution of materials during chemical reactions.

Our research focuses on the development of advanced materials for energy and environment applications such as electrode materials for flexible supercapacitors, various catalysts for the photodegradation of organic compounds in wastewater, the upgrading of vegetable oil to biofuel, and the valorization of greenhouse gases into value-added products (i.e. CNTs and H2 production via catalytic decomposition of methane, CO2 hydrogenation to light olefins).

The scientific challenge is the elucidation of structure-property relationships to understand the fundamental concepts underlying the observed optical, electrical, magnetic, and catalytic properties of materials. The atomic-scale structures (crystalline and amorphous phases) are studied in detail by X-ray diffraction and synchrotron techniques (e.g. X-ray absorption spectroscopy, X-ray photoemission spectroscopy, X-ray scattering). In addition, we investigate the structural changes during synthesis or chemical reactions under operating conditions using in-situ technique.

Therefore, the improvement of material performance can be achieved by tailoring their structures through appropriate synthesis methods and conditions, with an ultimate ambition to create new materials with desired properties and functionality.
