Distinguished Lecture Series – David A. Leigh

Mani L. Bhaumik Centennial Collaboratory 607 Charles E. Young Dr., East, Los Angeles, CA

Title: Giving Chemistry Direction Abstract: In recent years examples of synthetic molecular machines and motors have been developed, all be they primitive by biological standards. Such molecules are best designed to work through statistical mechanisms. In a manner reminiscent of Maxwell’s Demon, random thermal motion can be rectified through ratchet mechanisms, giving chemistry direction. It […]

Physical Chemistry Seminar 228: Bryan Changala

Collaboratory Yoo Seminar & Conference Hall YH4222 

Title: "Illuminating Exotic Chemistry and Physics with Single-Quantum-State Spectroscopy" Abstract: Molecules are amongst the most complex objects that can be controlled and studied at the individual quantum state level. In this talk, I will introduce some of the extraordinary advances made in the last decade by the application of AMO physics tools, including cavity-enhanced optical […]

Jeffrey I. Zink Inorganic Chemistry Seminar Series – Prof. Victor Mougel

Collaboratory Yoo Seminar & Conference Hall YH4222 

Flyer: Prof. Victor Mougel Flyer Title: Bio-inspired Strategies for Small Molecule Electroreduction Across Multiple Scales Abstract: Enzymatic systems have evolved complex strategies to maximize the efficiency and product selectivity in small molecule activation, including CO2 reduction. Besides unique active sites containing, by definition, earth-abundant elements, enzymes further control catalytic activity through second sphere interactions and […]

Jeffrey I. Zink Inorganic Chemistry Seminar Series – Professor C. Michael McGuirk

Collaboratory Yoo Seminar & Conference Hall YH4222 

Flyer: Prof. C. Michael McGuirk Flyer Title: Exploring Flexibility and Connectivity in Synthetic Porous Frameworks Abstract: Synthetic permanently porous materials are poised to play a key role in our transition to a more sustainable society. Owing to their structural and chemical modularity, synthetic frameworks, such as metal–organic, covalent, and hydrogen-bonded networks, are uniquely amenable to […]

Physical Chemistry Seminar 228: David Limmer

Collaboratory Yoo Seminar & Conference Hall YH4222 

Prof. David Limmer Flyer Talk Title: Exciton polarons in lead halide perovskites Abstract: In this talk, I will review some of our recent work concerning the photophysics of the lead halide perovskites. In particular, I will discuss how their soft, polar lattices endow quasiparticle excitations like, polarons and excitons, with a number of anomalous properties. […]
