Sergei Porokhin

PhD thesis: “Complex transition metal oxides as catalysts for OER/ORR reaction”

Supervisor: Artem Abakumov

IDC committee members: Artem Abakumov, Keith Stevenson, Evgeny Antipov

Sergei graduated from National University of Science and Technology in 2015 majoring in physo-chemistry of procceses and materials. His diploma work was dedicated to oxides thermoelectric materials especially cobaltites. At Skoltech Sergei focus of research related to complex oxides but in field of energy storage and fuel cells. In his current project, he works on synthesis of doped perovskite and brownmillerites, study electrochemical properties and analyze how morphology of particles affects on properties.
