The primary effort of the lab is the conceptual development for understanding the electrochemical interface. He has, since 1998, been developing models based on self-consistent Gaussian and VASP quantum calculations for predicting reversible potentials (via a linear Gibbs energy relationship) and electrode potential-dependent activation energies for electron and proton transfer reactions at the electrochemical interface (via constrained variation theory for local reaction center models). This effort supplants his prior work using his semiempirical non-self-consistant ASED molecular and band theory approach to getting rather approximate bond energies and electrode potential dependencies based on parametric shifts of the electrode valence band. Recently, a self-consistent theory was developed in his lab by Dr. Ryosuke Jinnouchi, a visiting scientist from Toyota Central Research and Development in Japan. It includes all aspects of the electrochemical interface, including surface charging, solvation by means of a dielectric continuum model, and self-consistently determined double layer structure. His group is using all three approaches, emphasizing fuel cell reactions to understand the effects of electrode composition, coverage, and potential as well as the solvation and the double layer structure on the formation of reaction intermediates. His work has led to the concept of effective reversible potential, which is changing the way scientists understand electrocatalysis and will help guide the discovery of more active catalysts
