Are you passionate about computational chemistry and sustainable green energy solutions? Do you want to contribute to the fundamental understanding of next-generation hydrogen production by using Quantum Chemistry techniques? Join our research team at University of Malaya (UM) to explore the intricate mechanisms of gas-phase ion chemistry and its role in catalytic water splitting.
This project focuses on investigating the fundamental mechanistic pathways of water splitting facilitated by hydrated vanadium ions in the gas phase by using Density Functional Theory (DFT). You will work at the exciting interface of computational chemistry, advanced mass spectrometry and spectroscopic simulation, contributing to the fundamental science underlying sustainable and energy-efficient hydrogen evolution technologies.
