Four connected paths to better catalysts

Our work follows the full causal chain from synthesis and structure to active sites and catalytic performance.

01CO₂

CO₂ Hydrogenation & RWGS

Designing selective, stable catalysts that convert carbon dioxide into carbon monoxide and value-added products.

02CH₄

Methane Conversion & Plasma Catalysis

Activating methane through thermal and post-plasma catalytic pathways toward oxygenates and nitrogen-containing products.

03HE

High-Entropy Catalysts

Tracking redox-responsive exsolution, dissolution, and dynamic active-site reconstruction in multielement oxides and phosphides.

04BO

Data-Driven Catalyst Discovery

Using Bayesian optimization and small-data machine learning to guide expensive catalyst synthesis and validation.
