This project explores chiral-induced spin selectivity (CISS) as a strategy to control reaction pathways and enhance performance in key electrochemical reactions, including CO\u2082 reduction (CO\u2082RR), oxygen evolution (OER), and hydrogen evolution (HER). Chiral materials can generate spin-polarized electrons without external magnetic fields, enabling selective control over spin-dependent electron transfer processes at electrochemical interfaces.<\/p>\n

By integrating chiral molecules and chiral nanostructured catalysts into electrochemical systems, we investigate how spin polarization influences reaction kinetics, intermediate stabilization, and product selectivity. In CO\u2082RR, spin-polarized electron transfer is expected to suppress undesired reaction pathways and improve selectivity toward value-added carbon products. For OER and HER, where spin states of reactants and intermediates play a critical role, CISS-driven spin control offers a promising route to reduce overpotentials and enhance catalytic efficiency.<\/p>\n

This research combines electrochemical characterization, spin-sensitive measurements, and catalyst design to establish fundamental correlations between chirality, spin polarization, and catalytic activity. The outcomes aim to provide new mechanistic insights into spin-dependent electrocatalysis and to advance the development of energy-efficient and selective electrochemical systems for sustainable energy conversion.<\/p>\n
