Research Areas

Photoelectrochemical   (PEC) Water Splitting

-              Inverse   opal structure of WO3/BiVO4 was designed by using the   PS spheres, with the swelling and shrinking properties. The PEC performance   was analyzed and the 3D heterojunction system was further investigated.

-              Photoandoe   materials, like WO3 and TiO2, were post modified by a   Li-EDA (Li metal dissolved in ethylenediamine) solution. Then surface   materials will be disordered and improve the surface oxygen evolution ability   as well as the bulk electrochemical properties.  

C1   project: methane oxidation and CO2 reduction

-              Methane   gas can be converted to propanol through the electrochemical oxidation with   selected nanomaterials and the conversion efficiency could reach 60%.

-              Based   on the electrochemical oxidation, photocatalytic materials could be applied   to do the photo-oxidation of the methane gas to form liquid fuel.

-              The   CO2 reduction by electrochemical and photo-assistant method is   also being prepared.
