Meet Sahand Adibnia, an ARPA-E NTEREST intern who is diving into the future of hydrogen at Columbia University. This summer, Sahand is supporting Columbia's OPEN 2021 project, which is advancing a low-temperature water electrolyzer for hydrogen production using ultrathin proton-conducting oxide membranes. Through his work characterizing proton transport mechanisms and optimizing conductivity with advanced electrochemical techniques, he has discovered the critical role of precise error analysis in pushing the boundaries of experimental research. Stay tuned to learn how this experience has transformed his understanding of hydrogen’s potential as a key energy source for the future.
