About

Zhang Yong (1969-), is a scientist of Materials Science and Engineering. He proposed criteria by using size difference of components for predicting the formation of high-entropy phases, which has been tracked by over 5,500 scholars from more than 1,300 research institutions across 72 countries, including pioneers in the field of high-entropy alloys. Over 1,600 new alloys have been developed. His work has been published in 《Science》 and in important domestic and international journals over 300 papers, with a total citation count of more than 50,000, including a single paper with the highest citation reaching 8078 times. The H-factor is 100, and he has been consistently recognized as a highly cited scholar for many years. He serves as a council member, deputy secretary-general, and director of the Intermetallic Compounds and Amorphous Alloys Branch of the Chinese Materials Research Society, the Nuclear Materials Society, and the Chinese Materials Research Society. He also serves as the editor-in-chief of the SCI journal 《Metals》,《Smart Materials Devices》, associate editor-in-chief of 《Research Appl MaterSci》, and editorial board member of 《Inter J.Min Met Mater》 and 《Metallurgical World》。Additionally, he acts as a reviewer for journals such as 《Nature》 and 《Acta Physica Sinica》《MaterToday》《MaterFuture》. In 2005, he was selected as an "Outstanding Talent of the New Century" by the Ministry of Education; he is among the top 2% of scientists globally. He is a reviewer for projects such as the National 863 Program, National Natural Science Foundation of China's general project, youth project, overseas outstanding young scientist, Ministry of Education doctoral fund, Chang Jiang Scholars Program, and new professor fund. He holds the position of professor, academic leader, and doctoral supervisor at the Advanced Institution of Fuyao University of Science and Technology. He has published several books, including 《Amorphous and High-Entropy Alloys》 and 《Advanced High-Entropy Alloy Technology》, and has been granted the National Natural Science Award Prize twice, the Ministry of Education Natural Science Award First Prize, the Shanxi Province Natural Science Award First Prize, and the Industry-Academia-Research Technology Award.
