Developing efficient catalysts for electrolysis, in particular for the oxygen evolution in the anodic half cell reaction, is an important challenge in energy conversion technologies. By taking inspiration from the catalytic properties of single-atom cataly ...
This thesis comprises the study of two types of 2D materials, those stabilized by non-covalent and those by covalent interactions. They are synthesized and studied on well-defined metallic surfaces in ultra-high vacuum (UHV). The self-assembly of terephtha ...
This thesis presents a study of the use of two-dimensional metal-organic systems as templates for the organization of metal atoms and clusters on surfaces. We start with a systematic characterization of the metal-organic porous networks formed on Cu(111) b ...
We report on the surface-guided synthesis of a dinuclear organocobalt complex, its self-assembly into a complex nanoarchitecture, and a single-molecule level investigation of its switching behavior. Initially, an organic layer is prepared by depositing hex ...
Pincer complexes are widely applied in homogeneous catalysis. However, only very recently has the first pincer complex been discovered in the active site of a metalloenzyme, namely, lactate racemase. Here, we report a synthetic model of the active site of ...
We use Ca doping during growth of one- and two-monolayer-thick MgO films on Ag(100) to identify the adsorption sites of individual adatoms with scanning tunnelingmicroscopy. For thiswe combine atomic resolution images of the bare MgO layer with images of t ...
The incorporation of N,N'-dimethylethylenediamine into an expanded MOF-74 framework has yielded a material (mmen-Mg-2(dobpdc)) exhibiting "step-shaped" CO, adsorption isotherms. The coordination of mmen at the Mg open metal center is essential for the uniq ...
Accurately simulating heterogeneously catalyzed reactions requires reliable barriers for molecules reacting at defects on metal surfaces, such as steps. However, first- principles methods capable of computing these barriers to chemical accuracy have yet to ...
Xenon is known to be a very efficient anesthetic gas, but its cost prohibits the wider use in medical industry and other potential applications. It has been shown that Xe recovery and recycling from anesthetic gas mixtures can significantly reduce its cost ...
Surface-confined self-assembled molecular networks are commonly described as crystalline structures with short- and long-range order. Few exceptions to this trend are found in the literature reporting on amorphous and glassy networks and, discussing the or ...
