Yifei Yuan
Professor / Study on micro-mechanism traceability of new energy materials
College of Chemistry and Materials Engineering, Wenzhou University
Yifei Yuan is now a professor at the College of Chemistry & Materials Engineering, Wenzhou University, China. He obtained his Ph.D. from Michigan Technological University and held a research assistant professor position at University of Illinois, jointly with Argonne National Laboratory Yuan conducts research on fundamental studies of electrochemical energy storage materials. He investigates local atomic and nanometric structure-property correlations to elucidate design principles for advanced energy materials by rational syntheses, advanced characterization, and integration of material engineering strategies. Particularly, his background covers the following areas:
1. Fundamentals of material (electro)chemistry and interfacial sciences
2. In situ transmission electron microscopy
3. Advanced nanomaterials/nanostructures for next-generation energy storage devices
He has published more than 150 papers in journals like Nature Energy, Nature Sustainability, Nature Communications, etc., and his H-index is 58. He is also the reviewer of journals such as Nat. Energy, ACS Nano, Nano Energy , etc. He has been invited multiple times to present research work in international conferences like ECS meeting and EEST meeting, and won the “K.M. Abraham Travel Award” at the 236th ECS meeting in Atlanta, US, 2019 (two winners annually). He was in the List of Innovators Under 35 (Asia Pacific, 2021) issued by 《MIT Technology Review》.
