Description
Summary:The PhD project focuses on developing electrochemical water splitting for sustainable energy storage. Designing and synthesizing functional electrocatalysts, including metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), cobalt boride nanoflakes, and perovskite oxides, to boost the efficiency of hydrogen and oxygen evolution reactions (HER and OER) are investigated. Improved activity and stability are obtained by tailoring catalyst properties over various pH values. These findings provide insights into enhancing electrode performance and advancing towards a “green” energy future.
