Biography

My research has focused on the development of efficient catalysts for energy conversion reactions, including electrochemical water splitting (HER or OER), oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR). I have published 52 papers, 26 as first/corresponding author. Most of these papers were published in prestigious international journals such as Chem. Soc. Rev., Nat. Catal., Nat. Commun., Adv. Mater., J. Am. Chem. Soc., Sci. Adv., Nano Lett., Adv. Energy Mater.. Amongst them, eight are highly cited papers (1%, ESI) and four are hot papers (0.1%, ESI). My publications have attracted more than 5,700 citations with a h-index of 35.
