Dr Amol Jadhav

Amol Jadhav received his MSc in Organic Chemistry from the University of Pune, India (2013), and his PhD in Energy Science and Technology from Myongji University, South Korea (2018), where his doctoral research focused on electrocatalytic materials for water electrolysis. From 2018 to 2023, he worked at the Centre for Integrated Nanostructure Physics, Institute for Basic Science, at Sungkyunkwan University, South Korea, serving as a Senior Researcher and Team Leader (Visible Photocatalyst Design), and later as a Research Professor in the Department of Chemistry. His work there focused on earth-abundant semiconductor photocatalysts for solar energy conversion (including transition metal oxides and chalcogenides), using band-gap engineering, nanostructuring, defect engineering, and heterojunction design to enhance light absorption and charge separation. In parallel, he worked on developing durable electrocatalysts (including single-atom and bimetallic systems) for reactions such as water splitting, CO₂ conversion, and nitrogen fixation.
