Research Interests

Our research focuses on the design, synthesis and application of functional nanomaterials. By using the state-of-the-art characterization tools, we are trying to understand the formation mechanism and physiochemical properties of nanostructures, from which we can design and fabricate novel functional materials for various demanding applications, especially energy-related fields.
