Research interests

My research focuses on the photocatalytic reduction of CO2 using metal-organic systems, emphasizing the design and analysis of pincer complexes to improve CO2 conversion efficiency under visible light. The methodology includes computational chemistry techniques, particularly Time-Dependent Density Functional Theory (TD-DFT) to investigate photoactivity, as well as machine learning models to predict properties of new metal-ligand combinations. Additionally, I am working on immobilizing these pincer complexes onto metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) to enhance stability and catalytic performance .
