Suning Wang (September 19, 1958 – April 27, 2020) was a Chinese-born Canadian chemist. She was a Professor of Chemistry, Research Chair and head of the Wang Group at Queen's University, Canada, having joined the Department of Chemistry at Queen's University in 1996.[2] Wang worked on the development of new Organometallic chemistry and luminescent materials chemistry. Her research interests also included the work on organic Photovoltaics and Nanoparticle, stimuli-responsive materials as well as OLEDs.[3][4] Wang and her group developed a simple method of producing graphene-like lattice through light exposure, which may contribute to a huge field of future use.[5] Wang held several patents related to the application of luminescent compounds and boron compounds.
In 2019, Wang was nominated for and was recognized as a Distinguished Professor at Queen's University.[7] The Distinguished Professor Program was created to celebrate some of the university's top internationally-recognized researchers.
Suning Wang was born on September 19, 1958. In 1982, she received her Bachelor Degree of Science in Chemistry at Jilin University in China. Later, she pursued a doctoral degree supervised by Richard Adams of Yale University in 1986, followed by Postdoctoral Fellow with John Fackler, Jr. of Texas A&M University from 1986 to 1989.[4][6]
Key Research Contributionsedit
Photochromic and Photo-Responsive Materialsedit
Wang led her group to discover new ways of photo- or thermal reactions by developing new ligand frameworks to create color-switching materials. For example, they found that a double mesitylene-elimination reaction with exciton-driven elimination known as EDE transforms some types of BN-heterocycles to BN-pyrenes, which can be used as emitters for EL devices. The phenomenon has the potential for new OLEDs or OFETs materials.[8] Wang and her group focused on providing alternatives to polycyclic systems and their transformations with easily processable precursor species. In 2017, Wang published a simpler method to break the C-C bond in naphthalene and its derivatives to transform them into benzoborepin. This method of synthesis helps make new borepin systems applicable in the field of organic materials.[9]
Luminescent and Charge-Transport Materials for OLEDsedit
Wang, together with her group, developed several luminescents and charge-transport materials with improved emission efficiencies, stability and color variety.
In 2016, she found a binary composite with Eu(III) and Tb(III), which can be used as an efficient and bright source for white light.[10] In the area of Phosphorescent OLED (PHOLED), she partnered to discover a high triplet energy platform and a double emissive zone where a high-performance Pt-Based Greenish Blue PHOLED can be made.[11] In 2013, she was involved in a project where a high efficient green-yellowish emitter for simple 3-component PHOLED is enabled with Complex Ir(MDQ)2(Bpz).[12]
