Shuaijing Du of the Duan Research Group Flyer: Shuaijing Du Student Exit Talk Flyer Title: Introducing Chirality into Hybrid Superlattices Abstract: I will present recent results on two different projects, with the common theme of introducing chirality into hybrid superlattices. 1: Modular assembly of a library of hybrid superlattices. Hybrid superlattices, composed of two-dimensional atomic […]

Flyer: Prof. Jack Norton Flyer Title: Applications of Catalytic H• Transfer from H2 Abstract: Transition-metal hydride complexes with en-he bonds stronger than 56 kcal mol' can often be generated from hydrogen, and may thus be able to catalyze the transfer of H from that gas. Hydrides with unusually weak M-H bonds, such as HV(CO),(dppe), can […]

Flyer: Yessica Nelson Student Exit Talk Flyer Title: Tailoring Boron Clusters: The Impact of Vertex-Differentiated closo-Dodecaborates in Emerging Applications Abstract: My presentation will highlight recent advancements in the vertex-precise manipulation of polyhedral boron clusters. Specifically, our work centers on developing methods to selectively functionalize the ²⁻ cluster, a quintessential three-dimensional aromatic boron-based system, with high precision […]

Flyer: Prof. Samanvaya Srivastava Flyer Title: Complex Coacervate Microemulsions Abstract: This presentation will discuss our progress in creating stable membraneless water-water emulsions comprising complex coacervate microdroplets. Complex coacervation is a liquid-liquid phase separation phenomenon driven by the electrostatic association of oppositely charged multivalent macromolecules in water, creating coacervate microdroplets enriched with charged moieties. These aqueous […]
