研究领域

I. Novel Porous Materials (Metal-Organic Frameworks and other Porous Framework Materials) Microporous Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs), consisting of metal ions or clusters connected by organic linkers, are a relatively new class of porous crystalline materials. These materials exhibit many interesting gas adsorption properties and have great potential for gas storage and separation applications, mainly due to their large surface areas and pore volumes. Our work focuses on understanding the fundamental physics and chemistry of these novel materials, and exploring their interesting gas adsorption properties. II. Computational Materials Science Computational materials science has advanced rapidly in the past three decades. Nowadays, the predicting power of first-principles electronic structure calculations is widely appreciated. Novel materials with certain desired properties can be designed in computer before they are synthesized in the lab. We are particularly interested in designing novel structural motifs for gas storage applications. III. Neutron and X-ray Crystallography and Spectroscopy Neutron and X-ray crystallography and spectroscopy have been fundamental in the development of condensed matter science. In our work, we routinely use these methods to study the atomic structures and vibrational properties of new materials, such as MOFs, novel hydrides, and carbon nanostructures.
