Wei Luo

Wei Luo is a Researcher at the Department of Physics and Astronomy, Materials Theory at Uppsala University. His work focuses on computational materials science under extreme conditions, particularly high-pressure environments, with applications in superconductivity, hydrogen storage, and nanomaterials for energy and environmental technologies. Key research sub-fields include phonon-mediated superconductivity, 2D material design, and density functional theory (DFT) simulations.

• Major Research Areas: Superconductivity under pressure, hydrogen-rich material synthesis, MXene applications, and environmental pollutant detection using boron nitride systems.
• Recent Trends: Analysis of clathrate superhydrides, strain-engineered photocatalysts, and thermodynamic stability of actinide-doped compounds.
• Collaborations: Active in international teams, particularly with researchers in Thailand, China, and Sweden.
