Nanostructured materials exhibit new and fascinating properties arising from quantum confinement effect, and produce large interfaces facilitating interfacial reactions, which make them an attractive family of materials and a hot topic in the research of advanced functional materials. We study fundamentals of a broad range of nanomaterials including metal and metal oxide nanoparticles, their assemblies and nanoporous materials, develop methods to fabricate functional materials based on rational design of their nanostructures, and address critical issues in practical applications including catalysis, energy conversion and storage, and biosensing, taking the advantage of the unique properties of the nanomaterials.
To have a rough idea of our research, we list up the following few examples of our on-going projects.
(1) Noble metal nanostructures for biological, analytic, theraputic and synergistically catalytic applications;
(2) Delicately designed noble metal/metal oxide ( or polymer, carbon) nano-composites for high-temperature catalysis;
(3) Alloy metal nanoparticles for analytical and energy harvesting/conversion applications;
(4) Porous noble metal nanostructures for single-particle SERS and catalysis;
(5) Nanogaps for efficient SERS substrates;
(6) Confined synthesis of noble metal nanostructures.
