20 Zhang Xi, Huang Yongli, Ma Zengsheng, Niu Lengyuan, Sun CQFrom Ice Superlubricity to Quantum Friction: Electronic Repulsivity and Phononic ElasticityFriction 3(4): 294-319 (2015)

Molecular undercoordination induced H-O contraction and O:H elongation and the associated dual polarization turns out a supersolid phase. Share the same H-O phonn frequency at 3450 cm-1the supersolid skin of water ans ice is responsioble form the less frictionless of ice and the hydrophobicity and elasticity of water skin

19 Liu X, Zhang X, Bo M, Li L, Tian H, Nie Y, Sun Y, Xu S, Wang Y, Zheng WT, Sun CQCoordination-resolved electron spectrometrics Chem Rev 115, 6746-6810 (2015)

Incorporating the theoretical approaches of BOLS, NEP, and LBA into the tight-binding premise and the experimental databases of STM/S, UPS, XPS, and AES has resulted in coordination-resolved, quantitative information regarding bond relaxation in length and energy and the associated dynamics of electron densification, entrapment, localization, and polarization at sites surrounding under- and hetero-coordinated atoms.

18 X Zhang, P Sun, T Yan, Y Huang, Z Ma, B Zou, W Zheng, J Zhou, CQ SunWater’s phase diagram: from the notion of thermodynamics to hydrogen-bond cooperativityProg Solid State Chem 43, 871-81 (2005)

TC(P) diagram of water and ice shows four-type phase boundaries according to their slopes; Raman mapping of three constant pressures and three constant temperatures reveal that the O:H-O bond relaxation in angle and segmental lengths take respective responsibilities in all phases and cross boundaries.

17 Huang Y, Zhang X, Ma Z, Zhou Y, Zheng W, Zhou J, Sun CQHydrogen–bond relaxation dynamics: Resolving mysteries of water ice Coord Chem Rev 285, 109-165 (2015)

Unification of the length scale, geometry, and mass density of water iceO:H-O bond cooperative relaxation stems the anomalies of water iceWater prefers the 4-coordinated mono-phase with a supersolid skin unless at the nanoscale; O:H-O bond memory and skin supersolidity resolve Mpemba paradox – hotter water freezes quicker

16 Pan L, Xu S, Liu X, Qin W, Sun Z, Zheng W, Sun CQSkin dominance of the d ielectric-electronic-phononic-photonic attribute of nanosolid silicon Surf Sci Rep 68, 418–45 (2013)

The dielectric, electronic, photonic and phononic properties of silicon can be predicatively engineered by bond relaxation and reformation based on the consistent understanding the fundamental nature of the unusual properties and their correlations. Bond relaxation is controlled by solid size reduction to induce under-coordination-induced local bond contraction and quantum entrapment. Bond reformation is realized by surface

passivation and metallization.

15 Li JW, Ma SZ, Liu XJ, Zhou ZF, Sun CQZnO meso-mechano-thermo physical chemistryChem Rev 112, 2833-52 (2012)

An original set of theoretical, numerical, and experimental premises has enabled clarification of the nature difference between nanostructures and bulk solids, and unification of the size trends and the emerging anomalies of ZnO nanomaterials and their

pressure and temperature dependence.

14 Ma ZS, Zhou ZF, Huang YL, Zhou YC, Sun CQMesoscopic superplasticity, superelasticity, and superrigiditySci China-Phys Mech Astronomies 55: 963–79 (2012)

Atomic-undercoordination-induced local bond contraction, bond strength gain, and the associated temperature (T)-dependent atomic-cohesive-energy and binding-energy-density are shown to originate intrinsically the exotic paradox of superplasticity, superelasticity, and superrigidity demonstrated by solid sizing from monatomic chain to mesoscopic grain.

13 Zheng WT and Sun CQUnderneath the fascinations of carbon nanotubes and graphene ribbons (Perspective) Energy Environ Sci 4, 627-55 (2011)

The C-C bond-length, energy, elasticity, chemical and thermal stability, C 1s core-level shift, Raman phonon relaxation, and Dirac-Fermion polarons generation and annihilation of CNTs/GNRs are consistently formulated, correlated, clarified and quantified from the perspectives of BOLS, LBA, BOLS-TB, and NEP.

12 Sun CQDominance of broken bonds and nonbonding electronics at the Nanoscale (Feature article)Nanoscale 2, 1930-61 (2010)

Nonbonding electron polarization (NEP) and localization by the undercoordination-induced quantum entrapment amplifies the “Strong Localization” theory of Anderson (1979), which originates the unexpected anomalies such as dilute magnetism, conducting-insulating transition, efficient catalysis, and toxic attribute of undercoordinated systems.

11 Sun CQThermo-mechanical behavior of low-dimensional systems: The local bond average approachProg Mater Sci 54, 179-307 (2009)

Complementing quantum and continuum approaches, the meso-mechano-thermodynamics formulates the mechanically elastic and plastic properties of atomic chains, nanowires, nanotubes, nanograins, nanocavities, and nanocomposites under various stimuli in terms of the local bond averaging (LBA) approach.

10 Sun CQSize dependence of nanostructures: impact of bond order deficiencyProg Solid State Chem 35, 1-159 (2007)

BOLS theory not only clarifies the nature difference between undercoordinated defects, surfaces, and nanocrystals and the fully-coordinated bulk solid but also formulates and unifies the size dependency of nanostructures in mechanical strength, chemical and thermal stability, lattice dynamics, optics, electronic, dielectric, and magnetic properties.

09 Zheng WT, Sun CQElectronic process of nitridation: mechanism and applicationsProg Solid State Chem 34, 1-20 (2006)

Nitrogen-modulated band-gap, workfunction, mechanical strength, elasticity, chemical inertness, photon and electron emissibility, and magnetism and their practical applications are correlated and clarified based on the NH3 like

tetrahedron and the 3B correlation, guiding surface engineering for functionalities devises.

08 Sun CQ Oxidation electronics: bond-band-barrier correlation and its applicationsProg Mater Sci 48, 521-685 (2003){Movie : STM/VLLED quantified 4-stage Cu3O2 bonding kinetics}

Replacing H with metals and O with C and N in the Ice Rule (Pauling, 1935), the bond-band-barrier (3B) correlation clarifies, unifies, and formulates O-, C-, and N-chemisorption 3B forming dynamics with discoveries of surface bond contraction, 4-stage Cu3O2 bonding kinetics, and a unification of more than 50 phases and measurements of O, N, and C adsorption in terms of 3B dynamics.

07 Sun CQ O-Cu (001): I. Binding the signatures of LEED, STM and PES in a bond-forming waySurf Rev Lett 8, 367-402 (2001)

Formulation in terms of bond making and its consequence on the behavior of atoms and valence electrons, and the corresponding parameterization, are demonstrated being able to correctly reflect the real process of reaction, as well as morphology, crystallography, and electronic spectroscopy. VLEED collects information of bond geometry, potential barrier, and electronic energy from the outermost two atomic layers of the skin.

06 Sun CQ O-Cu (001): II. VLEED quantification of the four-stage Cu3O2 bonding kineticsSurf Rev Lett 8, 703-34 (2001)

STM/VLEED quantified 4-stgage Cu3O2 bonding kinetics (Movie link) with clarification of individual atomic valences in the surface skin and quantification of the tetrahedral bond geometry under exposure, aging, annealing, azimuth angle variation conditions.

05 Sun CQ The sp 3 hybrid bonding of C, N and O to the fcc (001) surface of nickel and rhodium Surf Rev Lett 7, 347-63 (2000)

(O2--Rh)/(N3-,C4-)-Ni-fcc(001)-4(22)R45 surface reconstruction share the similar morphology and the “diamond-chain” along the <11> direction but different nature. N3- induces tensile bond stress while C4- induces compressive, which enabled TiCN buffer layer for

diamond –metal adhesion.

04 Sun CQElectronic process of Cu (Ag, V, Rh) (001) surface oxidation: atomic valence alteration and bonding kineticsAppl Surf Sci 246, 6-13 (2005)

Disregarding the morphology difference, O adsorption induces the same atomic valence and electronic valence density-of-states. Ag and Cu show the same phase structures at different orders. Bonding dynamic difference arises from the crystal geometry and the electronegativity difference between O and the metal surfaces.

03 Sun CQ and Bai CLThe bonding between oxygen and metal surfacesChem Hong Kong 1, 59-63 (1998)

Metal surface O adsorption may differentiates morphology but the bond nature and the valance DOS and the 4-stage bonding dynamics.
