Chunwen Sun is a Professor at Beijing Institute of Nanoenergy and Nanosystems (BINN), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS). He received his PhD degree in Condensed Matter Physics from the Institute of Physics (IOP), CAS in 2006. After graduation, he worked as a postdoctoral research fellow at Technische Universität München (TUM), Germany, then joined the Institute for Fuel Cell Innovation, National Research Council Canada (NRC) as a Research Associate Officer. He has been a Full Professor and group leader of Energy Storage Materials and Devices in BINN since September 2015. His current research interests include energy storage and conversion, e.g., lithium/sodium-ion batteries, metal-air batteries, all-solid-state batteries, fuel cells and self-power systems. He has published more than 80 peer-reviewed papers with a citation >3600 times and filed 15 Chinese patents.
