2019 May

We are a group consisting of materials scientists and engineers investigating a variety of energy materials for the greener society, with relevant experience in materials synthesis and characterization using a combination of experimental probes and computational science.

 

Our expertise spans metallurgy, corrosion science, hydrogen storage/separation alloys, and rechargeable batteries using electron microscopy, synchrotron characterization techniques, thermodynamics calculations, DFT calculations, spectroscopy, and electrochemistry.

Based on the fundamental understanding of energy materials, we try to design better materials for a better world.
