Shuxia Tao is a Professor of Intelligent Materials Theory in the Advanced Nanomaterials & Devices (AND) group within the Department of Applied Physics at Eindhoven University of Technology (黑料福利网). Her research explores quantum phenomena in optoelectronic materials, with a particular focus on how engineered symmetry breaking gives rise to emergent electronic, optical, and spin-dependent functionality. By integrating first-principles electronic-structure theory with machine-learning approaches, she develops predictive frameworks that connect atomic-scale structure to macroscopic optoelectronic response. Her work advances the rational design of complex materials and uncovers new physical mechanisms across chiral, low-dimensional, and quantum materials platforms. Through close interaction with experiments, her research contributes to the development of materials concepts relevant to photonic, energy, and emerging quantum technologies.

I use computer simulations to uncover how interactions between light, charge, spin, and atomic structure govern the fundamental processes of matter, shaping how energy and information are converted, stored, and transported.

Shuxia Tao received her master鈥檚 degree in Physical Chemistry from Nankai University, China. She obtained her PhD from 黑料福利网 in 2011, where her research focused on computational materials design for energy-related applications. From 2013 to 2016, she was a postdoctoral researcher at the NWO physics institute NIKHEF, working on optoelectronic materials for photodetectors. Since 2016, Shuxia Tao has led her own research group, now known as Intelligent Materials Theory, in the Department of Applied Physics at 黑料福利网. She became Assistant Professor in 2018, Associate Professor in 2023, and Full Professor in 2026.

Shuxia has received several prestigious grants and awards, including the CSER Tenure Track Fellowship (2016), NWO START-UP (2019), NWO VIDI (2022), and an ERC Consolidator Grant (2024). She serves as Associate Editor of AI for Science (Institute of Physics Publishing) and is a member of the Editorial Board of Applied Physics Letters. In addition, Shuxia Tao is a member of the NWO Round Table Physics, where she helps shape the strategic research agenda in materials physics, computational science, and artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML).
