Prof. Colin Nuckolls Flyer Talk Title: Putting Molecules into Materials Abstract: This presentation will detail our efforts to create materials from contorted aromatic molecules. In particular, I will discuss how to create ladder polymers from helicenes and twistacenes building blocks. These materials have extraordinary properties as materials. The helicenes have the largest chiroptic response of […]

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 […] |

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 […] |

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 […] |
