Research Directions：
Regarding the systematic molecule engineering of materials as our core instruction, leaded by the relationship of their structure-performance and applications, we would establish the principles of energy material synthesis; develop the multi-functional materials for high efficient utilization of energy, including energy storage and catalytic transformation. We would construct an open research platform for the scientists all over the world to solve the significant issues in the area of sustainable new energy materials. Through the cooperation with the researchers on other divisions in iChEM and focusing on porous energy materials, nanocatalytic materials, electrochemical energy storage and transformation materials, highly efficient solar energy utilization and transformation materials and the theory for design of energy materials, we would set a goal at the fundamental of the area of chemical materials.

Research area:
(1) Ordered porous function materials for energy conversion
(2) Nanomaterials for catalysis and energy storage
(3) Materials for electrochemical energy storage and conversion
(4) Materials for solar energy utilization and conversion
(5) Theory for the design of energy materials
