About

Yuhan Shen is a leading figure in the field of metallic glass research, a domain that bridges condensed matter physics and materials science. Their most cited work, the "Metallic glass roadmap" (2025), has already garnered 13 citations, serving as a pivotal guide for the community by outlining the key challenges and future directions in understanding and engineering these unique materials. Shen’s major contributions lie in elucidating the complex interplay between the liquid-like disorder and solid-like strength that defines metallic glasses, which combine the properties of glasses and metals in unprecedented ways. By mapping out the structural and thermodynamic principles governing their formation and stability, Shen has provided a framework for designing next-generation alloys with superior mechanical performance and corrosion resistance. Their work is particularly notable for its impact on both fundamental science—advancing our knowledge of glass transition phenomena—and industrial applications, where metallic glasses are prized for their elasticity and hardness. With a growing citation record, Yuhan Shen continues to shape the roadmap for a new era of glassy metals, inspiring students and researchers to explore the frontiers of amorphous materials.
