Research summary
AI-generated

Hong Sun's work spans materials science topics including battery electrode materials (lithium-ion battery cathodes and anodes, chemomechanics of batteries), organic semiconductor crystals with unusual mechanical flexibility, and more recently the physics of phonon angular momentum (a property related to how vibrations in crystal lattices carry rotational motion) and machine-learning approaches to materials characterization. The research combines experimental and computational methods to understand how atomic-scale structure affects mechanical, electronic, and magnetic properties of materials.
