Bo Zhao

Bo Zhao is a Researcher at Texas Tech University's College of Arts and Sciences, specializing in advanced materials characterization using electron microscopy techniques. She serves as Assistant Director and operates from office ESB112E.

• Expertise in SEM/TEM/FIB instrumentation, including environmental SEM and 3D tomography
• Focus on structure-property relationships in materials through elemental mapping and crystallography analysis
• Key research areas include nanomaterials engineering, high-pressure studies, and electrocatalyst development

Her methodological innovations in automated large-area mapping and data analysis have advanced nanomaterials research. Publications demonstrate specialization in nanocrystal synthesis, biogeomechanics, and bonding network analysis. She actively contributes to laser additive manufacturing and supercapacitor material development through microscopic characterization.

Bo Zhao is affiliated with the College of Arts and Sciences Microscopy Lab, providing training in instrumentation and supporting graduate research through courses and facility management.
