Prof. Can Li is distinguished for his seminal achievements in fundamental and applied researches in catalysis, especially in advancing the characterization of catalysts and catalytic reactions related to solar energy conversion and fine chemical synthesis. The scope of his research is wide ranging, and he is leading some of the fields. This account highlights his major scientific achievements in advancing the fundamental sciences of characterizing catalysts and understanding the mechanisms of catalytic reactions by developing in situ spectroscopic techniques (e.g., infrared (IR), ultraviolet (UV), Raman, space- and time-resolved spectroscopies and photoelectric imaging), and applying the obtained knowledge in the rational design and synthesis of catalysts for practical applications in photocatalytic, electrocatalytic and photoelectrocatalytic water splitting and CO₂ reduction, chiral synthesis in nanoreactors and ultradeep desulfurization of fuels, and fine chemical synthesis. In particular, his demonstration of the kiloton scale solar fuel production project will be introduced as a successful model for converting fundamental science into practical and impactful applications to convert CO₂ and water into solar fuels. This account also highlights his services to the catalysis communities and international collaborations for promoting catalysis science worldwide.
