Research Interests
My research group explores the properties and utility of new materials for renewable energy utilization. We make photovoltaic materials and devices and study their electronic and chemical defect formation and self-healing properties. We study electrocatalytic materials for carbon dioxide capture and utilization. We study assemblies that combine photovoltaic and electrocatalytic materials to make artificial photosynthetic units.
