Research Interests
Focusing on the application of high-energy molecules in electrochemical energy systems, my research integrates theoretical calculations, data-driven approaches, and multi-scale modeling to systematically investigate molecular design, database development, and device-level performance prediction. The research includes the following three directions:
High-Energy Molecule Design and Application: Designing and screening hydrogen-rich molecular structures for efficient utilization in electrochemical energy systems.
Database Development and Intelligent Analysis: Building a high-throughput computational database of high-energy molecules and applying machine learning techniques to extract and analyze key properties.
Multi-Scale Modeling for System Optimization: Establishing a multi-scale simulation framework—from molecular-level to device-level—to enable parameter transfer and performance prediction for electrochemical energy devices.
