Harnessing solar energy in form of hydrogen is a clean and renewable alternative to conventional fossil fuels. Unfortunately, the process requires costly and scarce Pt and Ru/Ir based electrocatalysts making its large scale implementation impractical. My current research efforts focuses on developing improved synthesis methodologies for designing transition-metal based bi-functional electrocatalysts for total-water splitting as low-cost alternative to the ones based on precious-metals.
