Research Interest: Nanoscience and nanotechnology is an incredibly broad and interdisciplinary area of research that has been burgeoning worldwide in the past few years. Global energy crises and environmental pollution are the two major problems of current world. The decline of fossil fuel reserve such as coal, petroleum oil and natural gas will give rise to volatility in fuel prices as well as its supply, thus resulting in economy instability. Photovoltaic cells (solar cells), which convert solar energy into electrical energy, represent one of the promising renewable energy technologies that can solve the future energy crisis and the conversion of solar energy to hydrogen by means of water splitting process using photocatalyst is another most interesting way to achieve clean and renewable energy systems.
