Open-Shell Molecules: A Radical Design for Organic Optoelectronic Materials

ChE Seminar Series Presents: Dr. Mark S. Chen Assistant Professor Department of Chemistry, Lehigh University Abstract: Open-shell molecules possess unpaired electron density (radical character), which makes them intriguing candidate materials for many optoelectronic applications. Air-stable structures have been reported, but most require lengthy synthetic sequences with limited generality. Our lab has developed a concise strategy […]

Design of Polymer Electrolytes with Superionic Ion Transport

ChE Seminar Series Presents: Rachel A. Segalman, PhD. Department Chair, Chemical Engineering, University of California, Santa Barbara Abstract: Progress toward durable, high-energy density lithium-ion batteries has been hindered by instabilities at electrolyte-electrode interfaces leading to poor cycling stability, and by safety concerns associated with energy-dense lithium metal anodes. Solid polymeric electrolytes (SPEs) can help mitigate […]
