Electrocatalysis and electrolyte design
This project focuses on unconventional electrolytes and the role of organic anion and cations on the electroduction of small molecules such as CO2. We use a variety of techniques to probe the electrode-electrolyte interface during the course of the interfacial reactions and reaction products including us in-situ SERS (surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, voltammetry, electrolysis, gas chromatography, infrared spectroscopy, and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.
