Chenyi Yi is currently an associate professor in Department of Electrical Engineering, Tsinghua University. He received his PhD in 2010 from University of Bern in Switzerland. Then, he joined laboratory of photonics and interfaces (led by Prof. Michael Graetzel) in EPFL as a postdoc fellow and research group leader.  Since 2017, he joined Tsinghua University as a principal investigator. He has published over 80 papers in high impact journals such as Science, Joule and Science Advances etc., with citation of over 1,8000.

His research interest is focused on light-driven electricity production and storage in a scalable, cost-efficient way. Basic and applied research will be combined to improve the stability of perovskite solar cells through further understanding and optimizing materials, interfaces and device structure. Special efforts will be put on semi-transparent and flexible solar cells as well as developing new process for high efficiency large-area perovskite solar modules. Solar charging devices will be developed to mitigate the intermittent problem of photovoltaics. It will facilitate large scale deployment of PSCs contributing to fulfill the growing energy demand by renewable sources.
