Professor Carlos Baiz from the University of Texas at Austin will present a seminar. Host: Dr. Ayanjeet Ghosh
Professor Kevin Noonan from Carnegie Mellon University will present a seminar. Designing Conjugated Polymers and Macrocycles, A Case Study with Furan Abstract In this talk, I will highlight some of our recent explorations into conjugated polymers and macrocycles which are of interest for organic electronic devices. I will focus on the benefits and opportunities which arise from using furan as a building block for conjugated materials since it is one of a few aromatics which can be derived directly [...]
Dr. Gayan Wijeratne from the University of Alabama at Birmingham will present a seminar. Mechanistic Modeling of Heme Enzyme Chemistries and their Synthetic Implications Host: Dr. Kevin Shaughnessy
Dr. Svetlana Kilina from North Dakota State University will present a seminar. Impact of Covalent Functionalization of Nanostructures on Their Optical Properties: Computational Insights Abstract: "I will present current research of my group focused on computations of photo-excited processes at organic-inorganic interfaces in covalently functionalized nanomaterials, such as quantum dots (QD) and carbon nanotubes (CNTs). Recent focus on assemblies of the QDs functionalized by various organic and metal-organic dyes is dictated by their promise to serve as a key [...]
Dr. Dmitri Kilin from North Dakota State University will present a seminar. Light-to-matter interaction integrated with ab initio molecular dynamics Abstract: Several aspects of electromagnetic field to matter interaction are addressed by computational modeling of transitions between ground and excited state potential energy surfaces, driving molecular system away from the equilibrium. Photoinduced bond breaking events are enhanced for molecular systems placed in the center of resonant microcavity via formation of a bound matter-to-field polaritonic state. A description of matter-to-electromagnetic [...]
The Chemical Effects of Ultrasound Emeritus Professor Ken Suslick from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign will present a seminar. Dr. Ken Suslick's Group Page The Chemical Effects of Ultrasound Abstract: Fundamentally, chemistry is the interaction of energy andmatter. Surprisingly, there are relatively few ways of putting energy into molecules. High intensity ultrasound has found numerous applications in driving chemical reactions and in the preparation of unusual materials, creating the field of sonochemistry. The chemical effects of ultrasound originate from acoustic [...]
