معرفی
Robert Henry Coridan is a Professor in Inorganic Chemistry at the University of Arkansas, affiliated with the College of Arts & Sciences and Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry. His research focuses on hierarchical functional materials for optical and electrochemical applications, with expertise in operando characterization techniques.
- PhD in Physics from University of Illinois-Urbana-Champaign
His group develops advanced materials for renewable energy systems, particularly in photoelectrochemical energy conversion and CO2 reduction reactions. Recent work includes stability analysis of metal oxide catalyst films and gas evolution dynamics in water electrolysis.
Research trends emphasize photonic structures for energy applications, non-thermal plasma catalysis, and operando optimization of materials systems.
- Honors: DOE Early Career Award, Connor Fellowship, Scialog Negative Emissions Science Fellow
Active advisor to graduate students including Sam Conlin (Chemistry PhD), Grecia Alvarado Munoz (MS thesis), and MSEN PhD candidate Rishabh Srivastava. Leads the Hierarchically Structured Materials Group with ongoing DOE Solar Photochemistry Program funding.
