Prof. Yet-Ming Chiang

Professor Yet-Ming Chiang’s research aims to design, synthesize, and characterize advanced materials and devices for use in clean energy technologies, including low-carbon transportation, grid-scale electrical energy storage, and sustainable manufacturing. His group studies electrochemical storage materials and devices. Other focuses are electrochemical processes for the decarbonization of materials production and the mining, separation, and recovery of elements from various feedstocks. Projects center on novel conduction mechanisms in solid electrolytes, solid-state batteries, batteries for electric aviation, low-cost highly scalable grid storage batteries, decarbonization of cement production, and electrochemical mining of ashes and other wastes.
