Overview

PhD student.

I will utilize an atomic-resolution electron microscope (AC-STEM)  to observe the catalyst preparation processes as they take place. Specifically, an in-situ gas system will be used in the electron microscope to understand the role of reaction parameters.

Research

The objective of my research is to comprehensively comprehend and optimize the preparation of catalysts crucial for the efficient conversion of carbon dioxide. Employing state-of-the-art electron microscopy techniques, the study aims to provide in situ observations of the catalyst preparation process, thereby providing invaluable insights for the advancement of optimally performing catalysts.
