Let's sing a "Song" for Nanocatalysts!
Why are nanocatalysts important in green energy processes?
Why are nanocatalysts important in green energy processes?
We are thoroughly investigating chemistry on well-defined nanostructures and surfaces. We have generated numerous nanostructures with uniform morphologies and studied various catalytic functions stimulated by renewable energy sources. We now focus on nano-assemblies for multi-dimensional functions and small molecule activation by photo- and electrochemical processes using designed nanoparticles.
Starting from the model catalysts, we explore fundamental principles of nanocatalyst design exhibiting high conversion efficiency and selectivity of energy conversion reactions, such as hydrogen generation and carbon dioxide reduction, and pursue to establish green chemical processes beneficial for human life on Earth.

Our department hosted the 1st KAIST-Vietnam Chemistry Collaboration Symposium on July 28th, featuring 5 professors from 4 renowned universities in Vietnam (VNUHUS, HNUE, HUST, and VNUHCM). We also hosted the 1st International Summer School of KAIST CHEM for Vietnamese students for two weeks. Here is the movie recording the memorable weeks of the KAIST-Vietnam collaboration.
