Nan Sun

Nan Sun (BS, Tsinghua University)  

Nan Sun received the B.S. degree in electrical engineering from Tsignhua University, Beijing, China, in 2006. He is currently working towards the Ph. D. degree in electrical engineering at Harvard University.

Nan's major research interests lie in RF, analog, and mixed-signal integrated circuit design. He is currently co-developing a CMOS RF biomolecular sensor, which, by monitoring nuclear spin resonance, can detect self-assembly of magnetic nanoparticles mediated by target biological molecules. In addition, he is developing a range of new digital background calibration techniques for pipelined analog-to-digital converters. As a hobby project, Nan also worked on a Lyapunov analysis of nonlinear-transmisison-line-based oscillators, making a central contribution to proving their chaotic nature.

Nan ranked first (1/160; absolute 1st ranker) in the department of microelectronics at Tsinghua University, every single year during his undergraduate work there. He was the recipient of the Samsung Outstanding Student Award in 2003, Hewlett Packard Outstanding Student Award in 2006, and Analog Device Outstanding Student Designer Award in 2007.
