Research Interests
1. Catalytic Conversion of Energy-Related Small Molecules
Exploring novel single-atom catalysts through enzyme-mimetic strategies and coordination modulation to achieve highly selective transformation of small molecules, such as light alkanes (methane, ethane), water, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and methanol, into value-added chemicals under mild conditions.
2. Aerospace Propulsion and Thermal Management
Developing high-temperature-resistant catalysts and propellants to enhance the thrust, stability, and service life of propulsion systems for microsatellites. Investigating novel endothermic working fluids and compatible catalysts to strengthen active thermal management capabilities for high-speed aircraft.
