This federal Project Grant award, valued at $298,686.00, was provided by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program to support a collaborative research project led by Professor Gonghu Li of the University of New Hampshire, Professor Jier Huang of Boston College, and Professor Anatoly Frenkel of Stony Brook University. The research aims to study key characteristics of catalysts that can efficiently convert carbon dioxide to energy-rich fuels using light. The researchers will synthesize a series of photocatalysts with tunable charge separation and transfer properties, and systematically examine the correlation between structural/electronic and charge transfer descriptors with photocatalytic performance using advanced spectroscopic techniques and machine learning. This fundamental catalysis research is expected to contribute to the development of innovative catalysts for recycling carbon dioxide and also provides a platform for training students in STEM fields. The project period runs from September 1, 2025, to August 31, 2028.
