Yury Gogotsi

Yury Gogotsi ( Ukrainian Юрій Георгійович Гогоці Jurij Heorhijowytsch Hohozi , scientific transliteration Jurij Heorhijovyč Hohoci ; born December 16, 1961 in Kiev , Ukrainian SSR ) is a Ukrainian materials scientist ( Electrochemistry ), Professor of Nanoscience ( Drexel University) .

Gogotsi studied at the Kiev Polytechnic Institute and received his doctorate there. He completed his habilitation at the Institute for Materials Science of the Ukrainian Academy of Sciences . From 1990 to 1992 he was awarded a Humboldt Research Prize at the University of Karlsruhe , 1992/93 with a scholarship from the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science at the Tokyo Institute of Technology, 1993 to 1995 at the University of Oslo and 1995/96 at the University of Tübingen . In 1996 he became Assistant Professor and in 1999 Associate Professor at the University of Illinois at Chicago . In 2000 he became a professor at Drexel University, where he founded the Nanotechnology Institute in 2003 and is its director. In 2010 he became a Distinguished Professor.

He deals with various carbon nanostructure materials, for example for storing electrochemical energy ( supercapacitors , batteries) and in biomedicine. He also dealt with seawater desalination, hydrothermal synthesis of carbon nanostructures and ceramics.

In 2011 he was one of the discoverers of MXenes , two-dimensional layers of compounds of carbon and / or nitrogen with transition metals.

From 2007 to 2012 he was a junior member of the Institut Universitaire de France . In 2012 he received an ERC Advanced Grant for research on ion transport in carbon nanopores (IONACES project).

He is one of the highly cited scientists ( Clarivate Citation Laureates 2018). In 2015 he became a Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry , in 2009 a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science and in 2008 of the Electrochemical Society . In 2014 he received an honorary doctorate in Toulouse.
