Zhuangnan is a chemist and material scientist interested in next-generation energy storage technologies. His research focuses on atomically thin two-dimensional materials for high-energy, fast-charging and long-life batteries. He has demonstrated an electrochemical energy storage device that can be fully charged within 10 minutes, and retain about 99% of its initial capacity after running for 20,000 cycles. His recent study develops a metal-free battery system based on the earth-abundant sulfur element, which can store twice the energy of state-of-the-art commercial lithium-ion batteries. Currently, his primary research interests lie in development of fundamental understanding on material properties for next-generation energy storage.
