My Name is Xuehang Wang. I am an assistant professor at the Department of Radiation Science and Technology, TU Delft. I obtained my Ph.D. degree from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology and was a postdoctoral researcher at Drexel University, mentored by Prof. Yury Gogotsi. Since 2015, I have published > 40 peer-reviewed papers with an H-index of 27. I have also won several personal/team awards, including DOE EFRC Team Science Award, Cotswold Postdoc Fellowship, ARC Discovery Early Career Researcher Award, and RSC Horizon Prize. My research interests include: the mechanistic study on high-rate electrochemical energy storage processes; synthesis of novel nanomaterials, especially transition metal carbide/nitride MXene, for batteries and supercapacitors; and interfacial engineering at the electrode-electrolyte interfaces.
