About

Lingxiang Shi is a leading figure in the field of metallic glasses, a class of materials that uniquely blend the properties of liquids and solids, glasses and metals. Their work centers on unraveling the fundamental structure and processing of these amorphous alloys, with a particular focus on advancing their practical applications. Shi’s most notable contribution is the co-authorship of the landmark "Metallic glass roadmap" (2025), a comprehensive guide that has already garnered 13 citations, signaling its immediate impact on the research community. This roadmap synthesizes decades of progress and outlines critical challenges and future directions, from understanding atomic-scale heterogeneity to overcoming manufacturing limitations. Beyond this seminal work, Shi’s research has consistently pushed the boundaries of glass-forming ability and mechanical performance, making them a pivotal voice in the field. Their efforts are not only deepening our fundamental understanding of disordered materials but also paving the way for next-generation structural and functional applications, from high-strength coatings to soft magnetic components.
