Electrocatalysis and Interfaces Group

Our motto: A place where diversity lives, and sustainable energy is what it gives

drop

The Electrocatalysis and Interfaces Group was established at PSI in 2012 and is now under the joint leadership of Prof. Thomas J. Schmidt and PD Dr. Emiliana Fabbri.

Our research activities focus on understanding the mechanisms of various electrochemical energy conversion reactions at solid-liquid interfaces. We aim to apply this fundamental understanding to the design of novel electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), oxygen evolution reaction (OER), hydrogen evolution/oxidation reaction (HER/HOR), CO2 reduction reaction (CORR), and urea electrosynthesis.

To optimize the rate, selectivity, energy efficiency and stability of these electrochemical reactions, appropriate catalysts must be designed and optimized. Our research studies include the synthesis of nanostructured materials, precise electrochemical characterization, and investigation of the physicochemical properties of the electrocatalysts under operating conditions using advanced X-ray-based operando spectroscopy. The most promising electrocatalysts developed by our group are often tested at the single cell level in (co)electrolyzers or fuel cells.

We harness the power of cutting-edge electrocatalysis research to unlock a clean and sustainable energy future by efficient electrochemical processes.

 

  • Pushing the boundaries of science through cutting-edge research on electrochemical energy conversion reactions, we strive for a sustainable society based on a clean and environmentally friendly energy system.
  • Our goal is to understand reaction mechanisms, catalyst property/activity relationships, and design principles for various electrochemical reactions in order to develop better performing, longer lasting electrocatalysts.
  • We aim to bridge the gap between fundamental science and application, ranging from model systems to device implementation (single cell MEAs).
From model systems to device implementation.

 

  • Focus on technologies of future relevance.

Background

Co-based electrocatalysts are among the most promising next generation catalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction. Refinements in these catalysts are necessary for renewable hydrogen production via water splitting at scale.  Fe-doped CoSn(OH)6 is a model material to study the activation processes (>3x activity increase) involved in forming the Co-oxyhydroxide active site common to this class of materials. This material also allows for same-batch crystalline and amorphous structure comparisons. Chiral nanoparticles have also been shown to increase the activity substantially. The goal of this project will be targeted exploration of Fe doping and/or spin selectivity strategies to increase the catalyst activity. 

 

Project details

Depending on the applicant’s interest and rate of progress, the project will focus on one or more of the following strategies. 

Investigating CoFeSn(OH)x activity using the rotating disk electrode technique.

Chiral structure preparation to enable chiral induced spin selectivity local magnetic field measurements using large scale facilities at PSI. 

Regardless of the selected strategy, the project tasks will be cycles of, X-ray diffraction characterization, and electrochemical characterization using the rotating disk electrode technique.

 

Project timeline

August/September 2025 to Dec 2025, or as dictated by student schedule.
