Research on modulating nanofluidics using atomic-scale defects now in Nano Letters
Atomic-scale defects are ubiquitous in nanomaterials, yet their role in modulating fluid flow is inadequately understood. Hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) is an important two-dimensional material with applications in desalination and osmotic power. Although pristine hBN offers higher friction to the Read More …
Paper on water splitting kinetics published in ACS Catalysis
Commercial water-splitting electrolyzers operate at elevated temperature and pressure. Here, we develop a general framework for describing the coupled effects of temperature, pressure, and pH on various phenomena relevant to the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) involved in water splitting. These Read More …
