Research
Our researches focus on organic and polymeric materials chemistry, including (1) conducting polymers and polymer electrolytes for energy storage, (2) functional nano- and micro-structural polymer materials, (3) hydrophobic/hydrophilic switching materials, and (4) self-assembled three-dimensional (3-D) materials.
In the conducting polymers and polymer electrolytes, these materials can also be highly porous structures, which may have application in energy storage. Within the field of functional nano/micro-structural polymer materials, we develop new materials designed for functional purposes. For hydrophobic/hydrophilic switching, we design and synthesize the chemical species that are sensitive to optical stimuli, electrical stimuli, or changes in pH, and further control the polarity of materials by the aforementioned stimuli. In self-assembled 3-D materials, we use chemical methods to control the packing of crystals and study the mechanism.
