Professor Min Jang's research team
(Department of Environmental Engineering), along with postdoctoral researcher
Wong Kien Tiek (first author), developed a graphitic carbon nitride (GCN)
nanosheets doped with single atom Mo characterized by high surface area
(exfoliated GCN), rich in NH2, and isolated Mo atoms NH2 at the edge.

Meanwhile,
this study was carried out with the support of the Ministry of Education's National
Research Foundation of Korea Basic Science Research Project
(2021R1A6A1A03038785) and the 2022 Research Fund (1.220038.01) of UNIST (Ulsan
National Institute of Science and Technology), It was published in Small
(Wiley) on November 20, 2022, entitled "Highly
Exposed -NH2 Edge on Fragmented g-C3N4 Framework with Integrated Molybdenum
Atoms for Catalytic CO2 Cycloaddition: DFT and Techno-Economic Assessment".
The
technology economic evaluation was conducted in collaboration with Professor
Han-Kwon Lim's research team in the Department of Energy and Chemical
Engineering at UNIST, and the DFT simulation was conducted in cooperation with
Professor Sang-Gyu Kwak's research team in the Department of Chemical and
Biomolecular Engineering at Korea University.
