Professor Xun Sun's research lab specializes in advanced fluid dynamics and process intensification technologies, with a strong focus on hydrodynamic cavitation (HC) for industrial-scale applications. The lab investigates novel reactor designs—particularly advanced rotational hydrodynamic cavitation reactors (ARHCRs)—to enhance chemical and environmental processes through efficient cavitation generation. Key research directions include the optimization of cavitation generation units (CGUs), understanding the complex interaction between vortices and cavitation, and developing scalable, sustainable solutions for water treatment and nanomaterial synthesis. The lab also explores innovative applications of photoresponsive systems, such as photobase generators, in polymerization and materials cross-linking.

1,5,7-Triazabicyclo[4.4.0]dec-5-ene (TBD) with pKa of 26.03 in acetonitrile can be effectively released by photolysis of TBD.HBPh4 salt, which represents a new family of short-wave UV photobase generators. This photobase generator enables the photoinduced living ring-opening polymerization of cyclic esters and the photoinduced cross-linking of various polymeric materials containing the hydroxyl-ester groups.
In this paper, we propose a novel propagation-based stereo matching algorithm. Starting from an initial disparity map, our algorithm selects highly reliable pixels and propagates their disparities along the scan line to produce dense disparity results. The key idea is to construct a line segment region for each pixel with local color and connectivity constraints. The pixel wise line segments are efficiently used to compute initial disparities, select reliable pixels and determine proper propagat
Hydrodynamic cavitation (HC) has emerged as one of the most potential technologies for industrial-scale water treatment. The advanced rotational hydrodynamic cavitation reactors (ARHCRs) that appeared recently have shown their high effectiveness and economical efficiency compared with conventional devices. For the interaction-type ARHCRs where cavitation is generated from the interaction between the cavitation generation units (CGUs) located on the rotor and the stator, their flow field, cavitat
Hydrodynamic cavitation (HC) is widely considered a promising process intensification technology. The novel advanced rotational hydrodynamic cavitation reactors (ARHCRs), with considerably higher performance compared with traditional devices, have gained increasing attention of academic and industrial communities.

One of the most challenging issues for the large-scale application of nanomaterials, especially nanocarbons, is the lack of industrial synthetic methods. Sonochemistry, which creates an extreme condition of high pressure and temperature, has been thereby applied for synthesizing a wide variety of unusual nanostructured materials. Hydrodynamic cavitation (HC), characterized by high effectiveness, good scalability, and synergistic effect with other physical and chemical methods, has emerged as the
