Postdoctoral Researcher:
Dr. Xiaoxiang Wang specializes in cutting-edge research involving the conversion of minimal precursor amounts into metallic clusters directly on electrode surfaces, with a subsequent focus on stabilizing resulting sub-nano-clusters and single atoms on defect-engineered surfaces. This innovative approach holds promise for various applications, particularly in the field of electrocatalytic water splitting. Dr. Wang’s work also explores the use of low-temperature atmospheric pressure plasmas, such as plasma jets, to expedite the conversion of solution metal precursors. This method not only accelerates the process but also enables precise control over the formation of sub-nano-clusters or single atom-site catalysts on metallic surfaces, which is crucial for efficient electrocatalysis. Ultimately, the goal is to advance the development of electrode materials capable of effectively facilitating water splitting, encompassing both hydrogen evolution and oxygen evolution. 🧪🔬⚡
