Kwun Nam Hui is an Associate Professor at the Institute of Applied Physics and Materials Engineering (IAPME), University of Macau. He received his PhD in Electrical and Electronic Engineering from the University of Hong Kong in 2009 and held academic appointments at Pusan National University before joining the University of Macau in 2015. Dr. Hui research focuses on advanced electrode and catalytic materials for energy storage and conversion, including lithium–sulfur, potassium-ion, sodium-ion, and aluminum-ion batteries, as well as supercapacitors and electrocatalytic systems (ORR, OER, HER, CO₂RR, NRR). His group combines nanostructure design, lattice/strain engineering, molecular dynamics, and DFT calculations to accelerate charge transfer and reveal fundamental reaction mechanisms.
Dr. Hui has published over 275 SCI-indexed papers in top journals including Advanced Materials, Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Advanced Energy Materials, Advanced Functional Materials, Advanced Science, and EES Batteries. He has an h-index of 69 with more than 15,500 citations (Google Scholar). Recognized among the World’s Top 2% Scientists (Stanford/Elsevier) since 2021, he is also a Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry, serves as Editor-in-Chief of three international journals, and holds over 50 patents.
