Professor Sun received his PhD in Chemistry from Brown University in 1996. He joined the IBM T. J. Watson Research Center first as a postdoctoral fellow (1996-1998) and then as a research staff member (1998-2004). He returned to Brown in 2005 as a tenured faculty member and has been the Professor of Chemistry since 2008. He serves as the Co-Director of Brown's Institute for Molecular and Nanoscale Innovation (IMNI) and as an Associate Editor to the journals "Nanoscale" and "Nanoscale Advances: (the Royal Society of Chemistry).

Professor Sun's research in nanomaterials involves two related areas: (1) chemical synthesis and self-assembly of nanoparticles; (2) construction and elaboration of functional nanoparticles and their assemblies for applications in catalytic reactions, nanomedicine, and magnetic energy/data storage.
Synthesis and Self-Assembly
Fundamental understanding of NP properties relies on NP uniformity in sizes, shapes, compositions and structures. This will lead to rational design and control of NPs for specific applications. We utilize the so called “bottom-up” approach to synthesize monodisperse NPs. By controlling chemical reaction conditions in solutions, we have atoms “build-up” to certain sizes and arrangement. As a result, we are able to tune NP sizes, compositions, and shapes. We are now exploring novel “bottom-up” approaches to prepare multi-component alloy, core/shell and dumbbell-like NPs. These NPs are stabilized by a lipid-type molecule (surfactant) and are readily dispersed in a specific solvent. The stable dispersion allows further NP surface modification and self-assembly. Therefore, these NPs can be tuned to have specific physical and chemical properties for important nano-technological applications.
Nanoparticles for Catalytic Applications
With the decrease in NP size, a large fraction of atoms become exposed. More importantly, NPs in this nanoscale regime have a large fraction of facets, edge- and corner-sites that may dominate the interaction between NP surface and molecules. Therefore, the controls of NP size, shape, composition achieved in the “bottom-up” synthesis are essential for rational tuning of NP electronic and geometric structures for catalytic applications. At present, we are developing efficient NP catalysts for applications in next generation energy devices, such as fuel cells, metal-air batteries and water-splitting cells, as well as in selective electrochemical reduction of CO2 to CO and other hydrocarbons.
Magnetic Nanoparticles for Biomedical Applications
With the dimension controls achieved from the “bottom-up” synthesis, magnetic NPs can be made ferromagnetic or superparamagnetic. Superparamagnetic NPs are especially important for biological applications as they have no net magnetization at the biologically relevant temperature and therefore no strong dipolar interactions, which facilitate their long-term stabilization. They can be magnetized under an external magnetic field, reaching ferromagnet-like magnetizations. Once properly functionalized, these NPs are bio-compatible and target-specific, and have been explored extensively as sensitive probes for magnetic resonance imaging, magnetic fluid hyperthermia and smart drug delivery.
Nanocomposites for Permanent Magnet Applications
Development of strong magnet for power and magnetic applications requires new materials with high energy density (kJ/m3). Nanocomposites containing exchange-coupled “hard” and “soft” phases in nanoscale can show much enhanced ferromagnetism and may serve as ideal materials for building super-strong magnets. We have been pursing chemical synthesis and self-assembly of magnetic NPs into nanocomposite magnets. By independently tuning the size and composition of each component, we are able to tailor the composite nanostructures and therefore their magnetic properties. Our studies provide both a model for fundamental understanding of magnetic properties within the nanostructures and a practical route to novel devices for magnetic energy storage applications.
