About

Jin Suntivich is a leading figure in the field of soft ionics and electrochemical energy materials, whose work bridges fundamental physics with next-generation device design. His research focuses on understanding and controlling the transport of ions in soft, polymer-based systems—a paradigm he terms "soft ionics"—and on engineering high-performance electrocatalysts for energy conversion. Suntivich’s major contributions include elucidating the governing physics of ionic transport in complex polymer electrolytes, which has enabled the rational design of devices ranging from flexible batteries to neuromorphic iontronic circuits. His seminal paper, "Soft Ionics: Governing Physics and State of Technologies" (2022), has already garnered 21 citations, reflecting its rapid impact in establishing a new research direction. Beyond soft ionics, his work on perovskite oxide catalysts for oxygen electrocatalysis has been widely recognized, with several of his papers accumulating hundreds of citations. Suntivich’s achievements include receiving the NSF CAREER Award and the Electrochemical Society’s Young Investigator Award, underscoring his influence in both fundamental science and applied energy technologies. His research continues to inspire a new generation of scientists exploring the intersection of soft matter, electrochemistry, and device engineering.
