简介
Yury Gogotsi
Drexel University, USA
Yury Gogotsi is a Distinguished University Professor and Bach Endowed Chair in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at Drexel University (Philadelphia, USA). He is the founding Director of the A.J. Drexel Nanomaterials Institute. He is credited with principal contributions to developing materials for electrochemical capacitors, the discovery of a large family of 2D carbides and nitrides known as MXenes, and tuning porosity of carbide-derived carbons with sub-nanometer accuracy. He published the first microscopic observation of water inside carbon nanotubes, discovered polygonal nanotubes (graphite polyhedral crystals), and invented the field of high-pressure surface science. The impact of his work is demonstrated by over 325,000 citations. The 2025 Stanford List placed Gogotsi 21st among all scientists in all disciplines worldwide, based on his 2024 citations.
