Professor Anthony Shoji Hall, Johns Hopkins University “Atomic-scale Insights into Electrocatalyst Structure and Function” ABSTRACT: The development of efficient renewable energy conversion and storage devices to curb climate change is one of the most important challenges of the 21st century. This can be addressed by using renewable electricity to manufacture chemical fuels and synthetic precursors, or […]
Dr. Grant E. Johnson, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory “Investigating Atomically-Precise Materials Prepared Using Ion Soft Landing” ABSTRACT: Scientific challenges that underlie efficient energy storage, chemical conversions and separations, and quantum computing may be addressed using unconventional mass spectrometry techniques that provide unprecedented molecular-level insight. Novel materials not obtainable through conventional synthesis methods may be prepared […]
Dr. Ellen Matson, University of Rochester Charge Compensation and Transfer in Molecular Metal Oxides ABSTRACT: Atomistic understanding of charge transfer processes at redox active transition metal oxide surfaces are central to the development of large-scale energy storage and conversion technologies. Here, we describe our efforts in bridge the conceptual disconnect between molecular and solid-state cation-coupled […]
