Area Frontier Materials / Energy and Environmental Research
Speciality Electrochemical energy storage materials: Design and tailoring of nanostructured materials for the applications of supercapacitors, rechargeable batteries, solar cells, and solar water splitting are the main research interest in my laboratory. We mainly focus on the methods of electrochemical deposition, sol-gel, hydrothermal, chemical precipitation, and templated-assistant routes for materials preparation. The relationships among preparation, textural characteristics, and applications of electrode materials are tried to establish. Electrochemical nanotechnologies: We focus on designing/tailoring nanostructures (particulates, thin films, wire, tubes, or composites) of metals, alloys, oxides, and semiconductors with novel optical, electronic, catalytic properties in the applications of photovoltaic, optical-electronic, anticorrosive, and field-emission devices. Electroplating and surface finishing: We focus on the electroplating methods of lead-free solders, metal/alloy bumping for the flip-chip technology, and hard chromium deposits from the plating solutions containing trivalent chromium ions. Quality engineering and DOE: We employ the applied statistics and experimental design strategies (design of experiments, DOE) to effectively screen out the key factors in optimizing the chemical processes. The experimental design strategies include the fractional factorial design (FFD), the path of steepest ascent/decent, central composite design (CCD), mixture design, and Taguchi method coupled with the response surface methodology (RSM).
