Education

Ph.D. in Soil and Environmental Sciences, National Chung Hsing University

Expertise

Soil Chemistry, Soil Mineralogy, X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy, Synchrotron In-situ Experiments

Research Areas

Prof. Hsu is an expert in applying synchrotron-based techniques, including X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy (XAS), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), and X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), to the fields of clay mineralogy, environmental science, and photoelectrochemical materials. As a former beamline scientist at the National Synchrotron Radiation Research Center in Taiwan, he has over a decade of experience, starting from his doctoral degree, in developing and implementing in-situ XAS measurements and analyses. His work has been instrumental in advancing the development of new catalysts and elucidating molecular mechanisms for element cycling in the environment.
