Research Interests
1. Design and synthesis of advanced 2D materials and their heterostructures, including graphene, MoS2, LDHs et al., and modulating their surfaces and interfaces to trigger high catalytic performances.
2. Thermochemical, electrochemical, or thermo-electrical coupled catalysis toward highly efficient activation and conversion of energy molecules, including CO2, CH4, H2O, H2, O2, CO, etc.
3. In-situ characterizations of catalytic conversion processes to provide fundamental understandings of catalytic activity, selectivity, and reaction mechanisms, for the development and optimization of advanced catalyst. Biography
