This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Chemistry under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) provides $510,000 over 3 years to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill to investigate the effects of molecular disorder and lateral interactions on the properties of chemically modified carbon electrodes. The research team led by Matthew R. Lockett will develop new carbon-based electrode materials, chemically modify their surfaces, and use advanced microscopy techniques to characterize the structure-function relationships. This work aims to provide molecular-level insights to rationally design improved electrochemical systems for applications in sensing, catalysis, electronics, and chemical separations. The project will also train a diverse group of graduate and undergraduate students and support community outreach to promote diversity, equity, and inclusion in scientific research.
