The growing demand on new technologies in the twenty-first century is toward miniaturization of devices into nanometer size with enhanced performances. Currently, nanomaterials are the subject of intense research with applications in a wide variety of areas including medicine, electronics, and synthesis of novel materials with unique properties. Appropriate control of these properties can lead to the discovery of a new class of high-performance materials. We aim to contribute to this discovery with approaches from different research avenues: Water Splitting Catalysis, Noble Metal Nanomaterials, Clusters, and CO2<\/sub> Capture!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Clusters<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Cluster science serves endless possibilities for the one who is eager to explore both the basic science behind and potential applications. In the process of bridging science and technology, we aim to prepare new clusters for various applications in nanotechnology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"CO2<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
CO2<\/sub> Capture<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Developing CO2 capture and storage technologies are well-accepted methods not only to reduce CO2 in the atmosphere but also to store it until its further use in industry. In our laboratory, we focus on developing new and cost-effective materials for enhanced CO2 adsorption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
