The Electrochemical Society is proud to announce the Society’s distinguished members recognized as 2020 Highly Cited Researchers. The prestigious list, published by the Web of Science Group at Clarivate Analytics, identifies scientists and social scientists who produced multiple papers ranking in the top 1% by citations for their field and year of publication, demonstrating significant research influence among their peers.
Special distinctions
Only 0.2 percent or nine out of 3,896 Highly Cited researchers appear in three or more Institute for Scientific Information™ (ISI) fields. ECS Fellow Yi Cui and ECS Awarded Life Member Michael Graetzel were recognized for chemistry, engineering, and materials science.
ECS Fellows Yuri Gogotsi, Arumugam Manthiram*, and Yang-Kook Sun are among the 5.2% of all Highly Cited Researchers appearing in two fields—in their case, Chemistry and Materials Science. ECS members Rodney S. Ruoff* and Qiang Zhang are also recognized in these two fields while Ji-Guang Zhang was included in both the Materials Science and Engineering lists.
