Applied interfacial technology

我的发现项目侧重于在气液固界面边界上更快地传输质量和能量，以提高能源效率。对于电化学系统，研究了通过金属表面势垒层的固态离子和电阻，从层到溶液相物种（通常是气态）的电子转移电阻以及这些物种通过液体边界层的输运。研究表明，对于许多体系，需要额外考虑中尺度结构影响，如催化剂或活性电极尺寸、表面积效应和孔径。这项研究同样与化学系统相关，忽略了电化学驱动力。

My Discovery Program focuses on engineering more rapid transport of mass and energy across gas-liquid-solid interfacial boundaries in order to improve energy efficiency. For electrochemical systems, the research investigates the solid state ionic and electrical resistance through the metal surface barrier layers, the electron transfer resistance from the layer to the solution phase species (often gaseous) and the transport of these species through the liquid boundary layer. The research has shown that for many systems, additional consideration is needed for meso-scale structural influences such as, catalyst or active electrode size, surface area effects and pore size. This research is equally relevant to chemical systems, ignoring the electrochemical driving forces.
