Super excited to share @Alex_James_King and my work on elucidating the role of the double layer in electrochemical CO2 reduction! This work has been years in the making, and excitingly, starts to get to the heart of how cations control rates of CO2R! pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10....

Revealing the Role of the Electrical Double Layer in Electrochemical CO2 Reduction
The electrical double layer (EDL) has long been known to influence observed rates of electrocatalysis, but a complete understanding of its role has been elusive due to the complex, multicomponent inte...

The challenges with Li intercalation when using Carbon based electrodes are something we discuss quite frequently in the Manthiram Lab here at Caltech! So cool to see such a clever solution to this problem here.

No better way to cap off the year than to get to see my thesis fully in print! 📕 In the fashion of Thanksgiving, I just want to say how grateful I am to everyone who helped make this possible. Thankful everyday to have the opportunity to do this work alongside great colleagues!

It's plots like these that make me excited for the possibility of electrification and decarbonization! Lots of room for electrochemistry and engineering to play a role in facilitating this transition.
