About Lab.

Our group interests in fundamental and applied research in material degradation phenomena in emerging carbon-neutral energy sectors such as hydrogen energy, ammonia combustion/fuel cell, mobility, and nuclear energy (e.g., SMR and advanced nuclear reactors). In particular, we are actively working on surface coatings and modification technologies to address the material challenges with a practical perspective.
