Introduction

My research is focused on combining theoretical and experimental research in small molecule catalysis and interfacial catalysis, with a particular focus on carbon dioxide conversion. By constructing and designing catalytic materials, I delve deeply into precise catalytic reaction mechanisms to explain experimental phenomena. From the perspective of electronic structure, I analyze reactant activation, intermediate transformations, and product selectivity. My ultimate goal is to uncover the principles of catalytic activity, providing guidance for the rational design of highly efficient catalysts.
