Xiahui Yao
Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Researcher Xiahui Yao has made significant contributions to the fields of materials science and energy storage. Their work focuses on developing innovative solutions for hydrogen embrittlement, solid oxide cells, and lithium-ion batteries. Yao's research has led to the discovery of electrochemical pumping as an alternative solution for hydrogen embrittlement, the synthesis of functional ceramic powders through thermal shock, and the identification of chemical and structural origins of hole states in yttria-stabilized zirconia. Additionally, Yao has explored the potential of graphene-based electrodes, protonic solid-state electrochemical synapses, and metal-air batteries, advancing our understanding of materials science and energy storage with the aim of developing sustainable and efficient energy solutions.
