Congratulations to Jiajun Wang for his review paper titled by "Understanding and Recent Development of Carbon Coating on LiFePO4 Cathode Material for Lithium-ion Batteries", published in "Energy & Environmental Science". It was the top ten most-read paper in November 2011.
Congratulations to Yongliang Li for his paper titled by "Superior Energy Capacity of Graphene Nanosheets for Nonaqueous Lithium-Oxygen Battery", published in "Chemical Communications". Also, it was highlighted by "Green Car Congress" and "Materials Today".
Congratulations to Xifei Li for his paper titled by "Tin Oxide with Controlled Morphology and Crystallinity by Atomic Layer Deposition onto Graphene Nanosheets for Enhanced Lithium Storage" has been accepted by "Advanced Functional Materials".

The research interests in Dr. Sun’s group (Nanomaterials&Energy Group) are currently concentrated on nanotechnology and clean energy. Specifically, the research activities include synthesis of nanotubes, nanowires, nanoparticles and nanofilms as well as their applications, e.g., as electrodes for fuel cells and lithium batteries.

** Nanomaterials&Energy Group regularly seeks top researchers and dynamic graduate students with backgrounds of materials, electrochemistry and chemistry for energy applications from around the world.
