Research Interests
We studies focus on developing and optimizing advanced energy storage systems, particularly for rechargeable batteries. Our research interests include synthesizing and characterizing novel electrode materials, investigating battery's reaction/performance degradation mechanisms, and developing advanced techniques for in-situ and operando characterization. We also collaborate with other research institutions and industry partners to facilitate the development, advance the energy storage field and address the pressing societal and environmental challenges related to energy use.
