Welcome to the Velian Lab Website
We are a synthetic inorganic chemistry lab specializing in 2D materials, black phosphorous, and Chevrel-phase inorganic clusters.
Our research program addresses three central challenges:
- Structural fidelity and atomic precision of the active site,
- Atomistic insights into the metal/support interface and the phenomena underpinning active site/support cooperativity, and
- Total synthesis of inorganic materials with programmable functions and structures.
For more information on our research, check out the poster on our Research page, or our Publications page.
Thanks for visiting, prospective graduate students!
It was great to meet you all February 13th-14th! Feel free to reach out to Professor Velian or any current graduate students with follow up questions. We wish you the best of luck in choosing a graduate program that’s the best fit for you!
