Assoc. Prof. Dr. Yuan Ping | Chemistry and Materials Science | Research Excellence Award

University of Wisconsin | United States

Assoc. Prof. Dr. Yuan Ping is a leading theoretical materials scientist whose research focuses on first-principles many-body theory and open quantum dynamics to understand excited-state and spin-dependent phenomena in solids. Her work advances the predictive modeling of optoelectronic properties, quasiparticle dynamics (excitons, polarons, magnons), and quantum defects in low-dimensional and hybrid materials. She has made foundational contributions to density-matrix–based quantum dynamics, spin-optronics, chiral and nonlinear optical responses, and defect-based quantum technologies, bridging fundamental theory with applications in quantum information science, low-power electronics, and energy conversion.
