Research Topics

Welcome! Our lab studies the interfacial science among thermofluidics, chemistry and nanomaterials. Specifically, we are developing simple and low cost flame synthesis method to grow one-dimensional nanowires, and applying these nanowires in energy conversion, combustion and propulsion, and chemical and biological sensing systems to exploit their unique properties.

 

Representative research topics are listed below.

 

☺ Nanowire-based

  • Catalysis for hydrocarbon oxidation
  • Flame synthesis of metal oxide nanowires
  • Nanoenergetic materials for propulsion
  • Chemical and biological sensors
