Jenny Sun

Associate Research Fellow, Institute for Frontier Materials, Deakin University

Jenny obtained her PhD degree from University of New South Wales in 2019. Her PhD project was to rationally design functional materials, as well as advanced electrochemical energy devices for the rechargeable batteries, including metal-sulfur (Li/Na/Mg-S) batteries and metal-ion batteries.

Her current research focuses on solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) between electrodes and electrolytes for Na ion batteries.

Jenny is a big fan of great adventures (bungee jumping, skydiving, diving and paragliding). In her leisure time, she also likes to play badminton and board games.

Training

The Centre will provide skills and training in advanced manufacturing across the energy storage supply chain – from materials through to devices and into integrated commercial products – to facilitate the next-generation of energy storage technologies.

Research

Working with the industry partners, researchers will design and manufacture new energy storage devices and components, including advanced Li ion, supercapacitors and solid state Li and Na batteries, with improved rate capability, capacity and safety.

Industry

In close collaboration with industry, the centre will build value across the sector, from developing supply chains, new devices and technologies to integrating and embedding these technologies with end-users.
