Nat. Commun.: Inspired by function-rich biostructures, a host-guest system was formed that exhibits surprisingly low symmetry. In this way circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) emanating from the guest molecule, could be significantly improved.

ACS Catal.: RESOLV members, Prof. Schäfer and Prof. Happe showed that a genetic modification can make hydrogen-producing enzymes more stable.

Science: RESOLV PI, Prof. Däschlein-Gessner showed that the reaction principle requires no expensive and toxic metals. In addition, it enables the production and subsequent transformation of a chemical reagent that was previously only known as an unstable, fleeting species.

The shape of nanoparticles is a decisive factor in their efficiency as catalysts for the production of green hydrogen.

Angew. Chem.: The toxic cyanide molecule attacks H2-generating enzymes, but at the same time provides new insights into catalysis.

APL Photonics: Researchers unveil a brand new concept for switches with unprecedented speed.

Coupled Cluster Theory, a precise electronic structure method, is usually limited to small systems. Researchers have developed an automated neural network approach to extend its accuracy to larger systems like liquid water, making it efficient and versatile for various complex systems.

Angew. Chem. Int. Ed.: RESOLV members Prof. E. Sanchez-Garcia, Prof. W. Sander and Prof. K. Morgenstern demonstrate a new functional molecular system with a combination of several advanced features, including a self-assembled oligomer, surface chirality, chirality switching, and finally their motion on the surface.

Angew. Chem. Int. Ed.: RESOLV spokeperson Prof. M. Havenith's study addresses the challenge of distinguishing between hydrophilic and hydrophobic contributions to hydration free energies—an essential step toward a deeper understanding of biological processes. By applying THz calorimetry, the team linked specific THz spectral signatures to group-specific solvation entropy and enthalpy. This…

Hydrogen is considered as the fuel of the future. Hydrogenases are enzymes that optimize the reversible oxidation of molecular hydrogen and therefore serve as blueprints for green and cost-effective hydrogen production.
