Research Theme

SECL focuses on the rational design of functional organic materials, electrolyte systems, and interfacial chemistries to advance next-generation energy storage technologies. By controlling molecular interactions and interfacial reactions, our work bridges fundamental electrochemical understanding with practical materials design for high-performance, sustainable batteries.
