Theoretical studies on metal-containing molecules is essential to understanding their roles in catalysis, energy conversion and electronic structures. The Rose group focuses on the synthesis of novel metal-containing…
Results for "inorganic"
Projects
Computational (DFT) Studies of Organometallic Complexes (Chemistry & Computer Science)
Project Lead:
Description:
Synthesis of Heavy-Atom Based Transition Metal Catalysts (Chemistry, Inorganic, Synthetic)
Project Lead:
Description:
The selective activation of methane (CH4) by chemical catalysts (i.e. energy utilization by means other than combustion) is a widely sought after goal. The Rose group seeks to develop novel catalysts and ligand…
Surface Modification of Semiconductors for Solar Fuels: Silicon and III-V (Materials, Solar, Synthesis, Chemical Engineering)
Project Lead:
Description:
The generation of chemical fuels using only sunlight and widely found starting materials (H2O, CO2) is part of a growing field of chemical research known as "Solar Fuels" Generation. In the Rose group, we…
Synthesis of Biomimetic Models of Mono-Iron Hydrogenase (Chemical Synthesis: Organic & Inorganic)
Project Lead:
Description:
Hydrogenase enzymes found in methanogenic bacteria utilize dihydrogen (H2) as an energy source for the eventual reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2) to sugars for use in cellular processes. Our lab's goal is to…
