The restart of in-person conferences means we need to take a new group photo. The best pic of the lot was our combined group photo with our collaborators from the @zenkina_lab.
New group paper in Electrochemical Science Advances.
Here we studied the electrochemical kinetics of methanol and ethanol oxidation using Pt supported on Si-doped Niobium suboxide (Pt/NbOS), which has enhanced activity over Pt/C.
See our OA paper here:

Big congrats to @Eastonlab MSc student Fanqi Kong for wining 1st prize🥇in the Surface Science Poster competition at the #CSC2023 conference in Vancouver.
A big thank you to the @CIC_ChemInst Division of Surface Science for sponsoring the award.

Here we report TiO2 doped with Ni and Cu (TONC). Beside having good conductivity, the PGM-free TONC material is also a highly active and durable electrocatalyst for the oxygen reduction reaction for #fuelcells #Ptfree

Congratulation to our undergraduate thesis student Vittoria Di-Palo (co-supervised by @zenkina_lab and @EastonLab for winning the oral lecture award from CIC Materials Division at the 53rd Inorganic Discussion Weekend Conference. Great job! #IDW was a blast!
New group #OA paper alert!
Silicon-doped niobium suboxide (NbOS): A fuel cell electrocatalyst support with enhanced conductivity and corrosion-resistance.
Here we have extended our Si-doping process from TiO2 to Nb2O5, creating a novel support material.

Was pleased to tour officials from CelerateX, @InvestDurham through our @ACE_WindTunnel discussing all things energy. Really appreciate @electrifiedshel and @EastonLab helping to show our strength in battery technology and energy storage. @RegionofDurham @JacquieHoornweg

#CCCE2022 presentation ✅ Had fun talk about my research with real humans again 😊
Our latest collaboration paper with the @zenkina_lab is now out in @ACS_AMI. Here we use an enhanced surface area counter electrode to prevent CE/electrolyte degradation. This enabled us to learn about the much slower degradation process happening at the electrochromic🌈 WE.
From our ACS Applied Energy Materials Early Career Forum: Surface-Enhanced Counter Electrode Materials for the Fabrication of Ultradurable #Electrochromic Devices go.acs.org/123
ALT In this work, we demonstrate that electrochemical cycling stability of ECDs based on a monolayer of 4′-(4-pyridyl)-2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine–iron(II) complex that was covalently linked to the working electrode (WE) can be drastically enhanced by a proper design of the counter electrode (CE).

Excited to announce that my thesis won an award @ontariotech_u 😭💛 I received the W. R. Smith PhD thesis award 🥺 writing it was the hardest thing I’ve had to do (so far). I’m so glad other people liked it too 😂 🥂
Our latest paper in JES is now out. This was a collaborative project with the Pickup group from @MemorialUChem
This #openaccess paper provide insights into our novel Pt/TOMS electrocatalyst and its application in direct ethanol #fuelcells

ALSO‼️ really cool thing we observed was that as we cycled the materials for prolonged time the charge storage increased!! The paper is open access found here 👇

I even developed a pilot experiment that I had some undergrads test out 😁 if you are interested in possibly implementing hydrodynamic voltammetry in your undergraduate labs look no further! All of this is available open access here: degruyter.com/document/doi/1… – at Oshawa, Ontario

OKAY here it is. As the self proclaimed 👑 of RDE I wrote a #ChemEd paper all about RDE! If you’ve ever wanted to know the theory, how to analyze data, set up your cell and more! Look no further 😁 (1/2) – at Oshawa, Ontario
The @EastonLab has openings for postdoctoral fellows on a project related to cathode materials for lithium ion #batteries. Interested parties can contact me at [email protected] for more details.
