Main research directions:
1. Chemical conversion and utilization of solar energy (photocatalytic decomposition of water to produce hydrogen, oxygen production, CO2 reduction to produce organic fuels)
2. Environmental purification technology based on the use of solar energy (photocatalytic water purification, air purification)
3. Key materials of photoelectrochemical cells
Personal profile:
Received a PhD in materials science from Nanjing University in 2014 and was promoted to associate researcher in December 2016. Research interests mainly focus on the application of photocatalytic materials to the conversion and utilization of solar energy, photoelectrochemical cells and the purification of environmental pollutants. More than 20 papers have been published in international academic journals such as Adv. Func. Mater., Appl. catal. B, Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys., Dalton Trans., Chinese J. Catal., Materials. Undertake the undergraduate courses "Powder Engineering" and "New Energy Utilization and Development".
Students with backgrounds in physics, chemistry, and materials who are committed to scientific research are welcome to join the research group. Students with outstanding performance will be first recommended to well-known universities at home and abroad for study and exchange. Interested parties please email to contact.
