Our lab is dedicated to advancing next-generation energy storage and conversion technologies, with a strong emphasis on rechargeable batteries (Li-ion, Li-S, K-ion, K-S, Na-ion, Zn-ion, and all-solid-state thin-film microbatteries), the synthesis of 2D materials (graphene, TMDCs, MXenes, etc.), and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) catalysis.

In the battery domain, our research spans the design of novel electrode architectures, electrolyte and interface engineering, with a particular focus on understanding and controlling the formation and stability of the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) and cathode-electrolyte interphase (CEI). We aim to optimize interfacial chemistry to improve energy density, safety, cycle life, and rate capability. Our efforts also extend to failure mechanism analysis, enabling us to identify degradation pathways and develop mitigation strategies for long-term stability. We explore advanced systems such as high-energy Li-metal batteries, lithium-sulfur batteries, potassium-based batteries (K-ion and K-S), and solid-state thin-film microbatteries with the goal of delivering sustainable, safe, and cost-effective energy storage solutions for grid-scale and portable applications.

In parallel, we investigate HER electrocatalysis, emphasizing the design of earth-abundant, nanostructured catalysts with tailored surface and electronic properties to enhance efficiency, durability, and stability under realistic operating conditions.
