Vincent Wu

Current Position

Vincent is now working at Sila Nanotechnologies.

Background

I grew up in West Windsor, New Jersey and moved across the country to do my undergrad studies in Berkeley. I enjoyed the west coast so much that I stayed in California to pursue my PhD at Santa Barbara. In my free time, I like to try out new food recipes, play ultimate frisbee, and game with friends.

Current Research

I am studying new types of polyanion materials for sodium-ion battery cathodes. Probing these materials with NMR will help elucidate their electrochemical mechanisms and guide better materials design for cathode materials.
