This $537,483 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to the University of Wisconsin-Madison supports the development of a new chemical measurement system capable of monitoring the time-varying charge on a single organometallic catalyst molecule. The goal is to provide unprecedented insight into catalyst mechanisms by revealing the shifting structure and charge dynamics of a single catalyst molecule, which could lead to the discovery of new catalysts and advances in materials, fuels, and pharmaceuticals. The 3-year project will also provide interdisciplinary research experience for graduate and undergraduate students, and engage K-12 students and the public through outreach activities using a portable microscope system. The award period runs from September 1, 2025 through August 31, 2028.
