Water molecules

Fundamental studies of its adsorption structures, hydrogen bonding networks, crystalization kinetics, as well as its catalytic reactivity properties.

Model catalysts

Resolve the structure-reactivity relationships by creating well-defined model systems (e.g., Pt-Ni-Pt(111), CeO_2-x(111)/Ru(0001), Ga/Cu(100), etc.).

2D-silica

Fundamental studies of its atomic structures, chemical modifications, atom/molecule adsorptions, as well as its catalytic reactivity properties.

Strategy

• Surface science approaches (IRRAS, XPS/UPS, AP-XPS, NEXAFS, STM/AFM, etc)
• In-situ and operando studies
• At the atomic and molecular levels

Goal

We are carrying out experimental work with the aim of improving scientific theories for a better understanding of functional nanomaterials.

Join us

We are very much looking forward to all students and young researchers to join us!
