The overall goal of this project is to investigate fundamental issues of gas separations by nanostructured architectures and unconventional media that selectively bind and/or transport target molecular species via tailored interactions.

Area of Research
The overarching goal of this research project is to understand how to control selectivity through tuning cooperativity in multi-functional catalysts.
High burn-up (HBU) (>45 GWd/MTU) nuclear fuel is associated with increased corrosion and hydride precipitation and high levels of irradiation-induced damage to cladding and fuel pellets. To support eventual disposal of spent nuclear fuel (SNF), there is a need to test and evaluate the mechanical behavior of SNF under normal transportation condition.

Understand and control the physico-chemical mechanisms that govern hydroxylation and carbonation processes during direct air capture (DAC) of CO2 using magnesium oxide.
-
The overarching goal of this proposal is to understand and control disorder-induced changes in superconducting and topological states across atomic to mesoscopic length scales with quantum microscopies that will guide the development of emerging superconducting quantum devices.
