This project develops magnetic catalysts by growing Pd on Fe nanoparticles and exploring Pt precursor interactions. Using magnetically induced heating and advanced microscopy, it aims to reduce precious metal use and improve catalyst efficiency.

This project develops advanced nanoparticle catalysts by decorating them with single atoms to maximise efficiency and reduce costs for energy applications. Students will learn synthesis and use electron microscopy to optimise electrocatalytic activity and stability.

This project develops nanoscale 3D metal structures as electrocatalyst supports to boost hydrogen fuel efficiency up to 1000×. Students will gain skills in synthesis and advanced characterisation for renewable energy applications.
