Doudou Zhang
RESEARCH FELLOW
Dr. Doudou Zhang obtained her PhD. degree at Shaanxi Normal University in 2018 and was jointly supervised by academics at the Dalian Institute of Chemical and Physics. Dr Zhang also completed a six-month term as an exchange PhD student at the School of Photovoltaic and Renewable Energy Engineering in University of New South Wales in 2018.
Dr Zhang has worked as a Research Fellow at the Australian National University since 2019. Her interests mainly focus on solar-driven electrochemical energy conversion; earth-abundant, environmentally friendly transition-metal and metal oxide/hydroxides/oxyhydroxides for electrocatalysis; high activity, cost-effective thin films as cocatalysts decorated on semiconductors for solar fuels conversion and nanostructured catalysts for electrocatalysis. She authored and co-authored 25 refereed journal publications on Energy & Environmental Science, Advanced Energy Materials, Chemical Society Review, Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Advanced Functional Materials, Chemistry of Materials, ChemSusChem, Applied Physics Letters, Electrochimica Acta etc. Additionally, she has been authorized over 10 intellectual properties on electrocatalysts fabrication and design of device.
Since joining the ANU, she mainly collaborated on ARENA project of using perovskite/Si tandem absorber integrated with earth-abundant electrocatalysts to realize efficient low-cost hydrogen production.
