RESEARCH INTERESTS

Zhong Research Group's research interest focuses on interfacial chemistry, with emphases on understanding molecular interactions, catalytic mechanisms, and chemical reactions related to sustainable energy production, conversion and storage (e.g., fuel cells and batteries), environmental sustainability (e.g., emission control and reduction), and chemical and biomedical detection (e.g., chemical sensors and biosensors). The research programs feature both fundamental sciences and practical applications, and involve interdisciplinary approaches from analytical chemistry, materials chemistry, catalysis science, electrochemistry, and nanotechnology.
