Ximeng Lv (吕希蒙), assistant professor at the School of Materials Science and Engineering, Shanghai Jiao Tong University.
For a long time, Dr. Lv has been engaged in catalyst design toward C1 molecule (CO₂, CO, CH₄) conversion into renewable fuels and theoretical simulation research of sustainable energy applications. So far, he has published 60 SCI papers (including 5 ESI highly cited papers), applied for 5 national patents, and been invited to oral presentations at conferences 5 times. Relevant studies have been published in journals such as Nat. Catal., Joule, Matter, Angew. Chem. (9), J. Am. Chem. Soc. (4), Adv. Mater. (4), etc., and were cited over 3000 times (H-index 27).
Currently, he possesses extensive interests in:
- Design of metal-based photo/electro-catalysts for C1 molecule conversion.
- Modulation of interfacial electronic states in electrochemical processes.
- Engineering of multi-scale polarization structures in electrochemical systems.
Meanwhile, Dr. Lv served as a peer reviewer for Nat. Commun., JACS Au, ACS Cent. Sci., Fuel, ACS Appl. Mater. Interfaces, J. Colloid Interface Sci., Catal. Sci. Technol., and so on.
