About Linic Group
Our group applies first principles theoretical (electronic structure DFT calculations, ab initio kinetic and thermodynamic simulations) and various experimental tools (surface science, in-situ reactor studies, electron microscopy, etc.) to study chemical transformations on surfaces.
The central objective of our work is the development of predictive theories of surface chemistry related to heterogeneous catalysis and electrocatalysis. We are currently working on a number of projects that aim to address various issues in the fields of energy and environment, functional nanomaterials, and fundamental heterogeneous catalysis.
Project descriptions can be found here.
Group Highlights
Professor Suljo Linic has been awarded a DuPont Young Professor Award. This award, which provides research support for 3 years, is awarded annually to 10–15 investigators world-wide across multiple scientific disciplines.
Prof. Linic has also been awarded the NSF CAREER grant for 2006-2011. This research will focus on the chemistry of functioning nanomaterials.
