CURRENT RESEARCH AREAS and Publications
Research into
the relations between the structure and physical properties of solids, their
surface properties, and their ability to guide chemical reactions
along specific pathways. Solid state
chemistry and catalysis phenomena are investigated by modern means of electron
and optical spectroscopies and electron microscopy involving microdiffraction and X-ray microanalysis. OLEDs and PLEDs.
Surface science of atomic and molecular overlayers is being
pursued using high energy and angle resolution X-ray and UV photoelectron
spectroscopy (HR X(U)PS), electron energy loss spectroscopy (HR EELS), low
energy electron diffraction (LEED), temperature programmed desorption (TPD),
and isotope methods.
Quantum chemical
state-of-the-art studies are carried out
of the reaction pathways and the structure of surface
complexes using gradient semi-empirical and ab
initio methods.
Theory of Periodic Systems
Based on DFT-FP-LAPW Method (view PDF file)
Clusters (view PDF file)
Intrazeolitic transition metal ion complexes with organic molecules are being investigated by
spectroscopic, structural, and theoretical methods. Dioxygen,
olefin, and nitrogen oxide complexes have been synthesized, theoretical ligand
field theory thereof developed, and Jahn-Teller
effect with spin-orbit coupling as well as excitation energy transfer are being
studied.
Several current projects involve the synthesis
of alcohols and ethers from carbon monoxide and hydrogen catalyzed by copper,
transition metals, oxides, sulfides and solid acids. The fundamental aspect of
this research focuses on the determination of the relation between the
structure and electronic state of the catalysts and their selectivity to a
given product, the control of the C-C, C-O, C-H, and C-N bond formation. Activation of small molecules for specific reactions, such as of
methane to formaldehyde, methanol and higher alcohols, is being studied
experimentally and theoretically. The catalysts involve doubly doped oxides,
zeolites and metals, both in single crystal form and in ultradispersed
form. The practical significance of this research rests in our ability to
design catalysts for novel synthesis of monomers, energy chemicals, and
specialty chemicals. The research team working on the project involves physical
chemists, organic chemists, chemical engineers, and physicists.
