Adv. Mater. Interfaces: Joint publication RESOLV members Prof. R. Kramer Campen and Dr. M. Rabe. Metal nanoparticles (NPs) immobilized on molecularly modified supports form versatile hybrid materials, offering extensive combinatorial flexibility and synergistic interactions between the organic and inorganic components, making them ideal for applications such as catalysis, and sensing. In…
Phys. Rev. B.: Joint publication RESOLV members Prof. W. Sander and Prof. K. Morgenstern.
They introduce inelastic electron tunneling spectroscopy to distinguish between the weak and strong electronic coupling of a bistable molecule to a metal electrode. Ab initio electronic structure calculations demonstrate that the electronic coupling strength is related to the hybridization of molecular…
Sci. Adv.: Two RESOLV groups, led by Prof. Havenith and Prof. Marx, published their results about supercritical water. When exposed to high temperatures and pressure, water enters a state in which liquid and gas can no longer be distinguished. For a long time, there has been controversy about how this looks like on a molecular level.
JACS: Three RESOLV research groups, led by Prof. Huber, Prof. List, and Prof. Merten, combined their expertise to reveal the first highly enantioselective example of Asymmetric Counteranion-Directed Halogen Bonding Catalysis.
Adv. Sci: Joint publication RESOLV members Prof. P. Petersen and Prof. S. Kruss. Hyperspectral imaging captures both spectral and spatial information from a sample but is intrinsically slow. The near infrared (NIR, > 800 nm) is advantageous for imaging applications because it falls into the tissue transparency window and also contains vibrational overtone and combination modes useful for molecular…
Science: Together with his team, RESOLV member Prof. Max M. Hansmann developed a new reagent that can be used to insert a carbon atom into organic molecules to create three-dimensional structures.
Angew. Chem. Int. Ed.: Two RESOLV research groups, led by Prof. Hansmann and Prof. Kasanmascheff, published their findings on a new class of diradicals.
JACS: Two RESOLV research groups, led by Dr. J. Cornella and Prof. F. Neese, published new findings on the excited state dynamics of N,C,N-Pincer Bismuthinidene and the mechanism of oxidative addition into aryl iodides.
