Dr. Jingkai Lin | Materials | Young Scientist Award
Adelaide University | Australia
Dr. Jingkai Lin is an early-career researcher in chemical engineering and functional materials, with a strong research focus on solar-driven catalysis and photocatalytic energy conversion using graphitic carbon nitride–based single-atom catalysts. His research emphasizes atomic-scale catalyst design for sustainable technologies, including green hydrogen generation, ammonia decomposition, plastic upcycling, and environmental remediation. He has built a strong and independent research profile with over 40 peer-reviewed publications in high-impact international journals such as Nature Communications, Angewandte Chemie, Advanced Functional Materials, and ACS Catalysis. His work has attracted more than 1,350 citations, resulting in an h-index of 17, reflecting both productivity and global research influence at an early career stage. He is recognized for combining in situ and operando characterization techniques with theoretical modeling to reveal fundamental structure–property relationships in catalytic systems. His research has contributed to advancing single-atom catalysis as a viable pathway for clean energy conversion and carbon-neutral chemical processes. Overall, his clear research vision, strong publication record, and growing international reputation make him highly suitable for recognition under a Research for Young Researcher Award.
