This $363,799 Project Grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) federal grant program. The primary objectives of this 5-year project are to: Develop new pathways for assembling atomically thin bilayers (heterobilayers) of 2D materials like transition metal dichalcogenides, which are free of wrinkles and impurities at the interfaces. This bottom-up approach aims to take advantage of the most stable configurations when...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $217,828 project grant to the University of California, Davis under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to support research on the synthesis, structure, and chemistry of heterotriquinanes and related polycyclic ring systems. Professor Mark Mascal and colleagues will conduct investigations into molecules with defined curvature, including heterotriquinanes that are bowl-shaped and systems that can become spherical. The work will...
The National Science Foundation awarded a 4-year, $575,000 Project Grant to Professor Babak Borhan at Michigan State University (MSU) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program. The project focuses on developing new methodologies to rapidly identify the chirality (three-dimensional shape) of organic molecules, which is critical for understanding their physical and biological characteristics. Key objectives include designing and synthesizing supramolecular sensor...
This $495,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Chemistry under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program supports Professor Richard Schaller of Northwestern University in investigating the transient structural evolution and dissipation in organic-inorganic hybrid materials.
