| Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
Our research has focused on developing MOF-derived materials for energy storage and conversion applications with improved electrochemical performance. Through various synthesis methods, including direct carbonization, template-assisted synthesis, and chemical activation, we have prepared MOF-derived carbon-based materials with high specific surface area, pore volume, and conductivity, which are crucial factors for enhancing electrochemical performance in energy storage devices. For example, wevhave used a self-templating method to prepare hollow ordered mesoporous carbon (HOMC) materials with high N-doping, which have demonstrated superior electrochemical performance for supercapacitors. In addition, I have explored the potential of sulfides in energy storage and conversion, constructing a dual-modulated NiCo2O4@NiCo2S4 heterostructure and incorporating sulfur vacancies in CuCo2S4 hollow nanoarchitectures to achieve enhanced electrochemical performance. Furthermore, we have explored interfacial coupled engineering of plasmonic amorphous MoO3-x nanodots/g-C3N4 nanosheets for photocatalytic water splitting and photothermal conversion, developing highly active photocatalysts with excellent electrochemical performance. Overall, our research has demonstrated the great potential of MOF-derived materials, sulfides, and their heterostructures for energy storage and conversion applications, with publications in prestigious journals such as Energy Storage Materials, Carbon Energy, Advanced Energy Materials, and Small.
