Yang Shao-horn

Professor Yang Shao-Horn studies materials for electrochemical and photoelectrochemical energy storage and conversion. Her research exploits physical and materials chemistries to understand and control the kinetics and dynamics for storing electrons, critical to enable clean energy and mitigate climate change. She develops universal design principles of materials to enhance functions in a number of applications, from sustainable chemicals and fuels to rechargeable lithium-ion and lithium-air batteries.
