Energy Catalysis and Conversion with Graphyne-Based Materials, Chemistry, and Devices

The concurrent advancement of clean energy as a replacement for traditional fossil fuels and the development of highly efficient conversion systems for carbon-based molecules hold paramount significance in realizing the national goals outlined in the "Carbon Neutrality and Peak" development strategy. Therefore, the focus will be on researching the following areas: materials design, reaction mechanisms, and devices.

1. **Hydrogen (H2) Energy Technology**

Developing efficient and cost-effective water electrolysis technologies to enable large-scale production of green hydrogen.

Designing novel graphyne-based catalysts and electrolyzer materials to lower energy consumption and enhance stability.

Constructing catalysts for hydrogen fuel cells to increase power density and stability.


2. **Efficient Conversion Systems for Carbon-Based Molecules**

Developing highly efficient electrocatalytic CO2/CO reduction systems, such as electrolytic production of methane or ethylene.

Designing novel graphyne-based electrocatalysts, electrode materials, and device configurations to improve conversion efficiency and stability.


3. **Nitrogen-Based Molecules, Ion-Catalyzed Conversion**


Designing efficient catalytic materials and devices for the conversion of nitrogen gas, nitrate ions, and nitrite ions to accelerate the large-scale synthesis of green ammonia.
