Key research topics

    Creation and realization of novel nanostructured materials is of significance for the advanced development of modern nano science and technology. Our research groups are devoted to synthesizing nanoscale materials with the aim to manipulate its size, structure and surface composition which greatly influences their physical and chemical properties. Currently, areas of our key research topics are mainly divided into four parts as described as follows:

　

(1). Preparation and characterization of the structure and surface controllable alloy catalysts for fuel cells

(2). Modification of hydrogenation and dehydrogenation kinetic properties on the chemical hydride materials

(3). Preparation of binary or ternary alloyed nanocrystals for light emission diode

(4). Investigation of surface specie evolutions on the alloy nanoparticles
