Research
·Research fields:
Mainly devoted to electrochemical analysis, electrocatalytic activity and mechanism of non-precious metal catalysts. Based on the research related to the use of non-precious metals and their derivatives as catalysts in the field of water electrolysis, we analyze the reaction mechanisms of several catalytic reactions, such as UOR, HER, OER, ORR, etc., at the atomic level.
