Theoretical Catalysis group, led by Prof. Wei-Xue Li, applies predictive-quality general methodologies by combining first-principles density-functional theory (DFT) calculations with thermodynamics for the control and understanding of the active sites and reaction path on surfaces, interfaces and nanoparticles under technologically relevant conditions, as well as their impacts on the catalytic activity and selectivity.
