Jennifer Q. Lu
Functional Materials Lab

The emergence of new material systems, from steel and plastic to silicon, has transformed industries and enriched lives. Functional materials and innovative structuring are pivotal in driving progress across nearly every scientific and technological field.

Research

In Dr. Lu's functional materials lab, we integrate our proficiency in controlled inorganic nanomaterial synthesis, interface engineering, chemical synthesis, and 3D printing within a unified framework. Our primary goal is to develop new material platforms capable of efficiently converting one form of energy or force into another, vital for applications in batteries, fuel cells, and the production of chemicals using renewable energy. Furthermore, we are pioneering new ceramic systems.
