Tao Gao

About

Dr. Tao Gao is a Research Scientist at the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU). He earned his BSc and MSc in Materials Science from Northwestern Polytechnical University, China. In 2003, he defended his PhD in Condensed Matter Physics at the Institute of Solid State Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences. He subsequently conducted postdoctoral research at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the University of Hong Kong, and the University of Oslo. In 2009, he joined The Research Centre on Zero Emission Buildings (ZEB) and began his academic career at NTNU. He has authored/co-authored approximately 120 peer-reviewed scientific publications, which, according to Google Scholar, have accumulated over 8,800 citations since September 1, 2025.

Dr. Gao’s research specializes in materials science and nanotechnology, with a particular focus on the synthesis, formulation, and application of layer- and tunnel-structured transition metal oxides in advanced energy and environmental technologies. He is currently conducting research on advanced building materials (e.g., superinsulation materials), dynamic building envelope components (e.g., smart windows and phase change materials), and building-integrated photovoltaics to support the green transitions in the built environment.
