This $272,654 federal Project Grant award was provided by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program to the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. The award will support the research conducted by Prof. Thomas Junk and his team to investigate the properties and applications of novel organotellurium compounds, which can spontaneously form complex supramolecular structures. The project aims to develop green synthetic methods for these compounds and use advanced computational modeling to understand and design materials with desirable optical, electronic, and catalytic properties. The research outcomes are expected to catalyze interdisciplinary collaborations and provide research and educational opportunities for graduate and undergraduate students. No sub-awards are planned under this grant.
