Research

Local Electrochemistry (SECCM)

Scanning electrochemical cell microscopy (SECCM) enables localized measurements with high spatial resolution. We use SECCM to probe site-specific electrochemical activity and interfacial heterogeneity, providing insight into local structure–activity relationships.

Energy Conversion & Storage 

Electrochemistry is central to sustainable energy conversion and storage. We study materials and interfaces for water electrolysis, fuel cells, hydrogen storage, and related systems to improve efficiency, stability, and practical applicability.

Electrochemical Surface Area (ECSA)

Electrochemical surface area (ECSA) is a key parameter for evaluating intrinsic electrocatalytic activity. We develop and refine quantitative ECSA methods to better define active surface sites and correlate surface structure with electrochemical performance.

Electrocatalysis

Electrocatalysis plays a crucial role in energy and environmental technologies. We design advanced electrocatalysts and investigate their mechanisms, kinetics, and structure–activity relationships for efficient electrochemical transformations.
