Research

Kostecki’s group conducts research on basic processes and fundamental phenomena that occur in electrical energy storage/conversion devices and water treatment systems. We develop and apply advanced spectroscopy and microscopy techniques in combination with electrochemical methods to obtain a detailed insight into the mechanism of interfacial phenomena, which determine the function, operation and degradation modes of materials, electrodes and devices. We work closely with our partners in national labs, academia and industry to establish clear connections between diagnostics, theory/modelling, materials synthesis and technology development R&D.
