SYNOPSIS

This multidisciplinary program supports basic research in solid state and material chemistry that comprises the elucidation of the atomic and molecular basis for material development, and the combination of experiment with theory and/or simulation.  General areas of interest include but are not limited to innovative approaches to the design, synthesis and characterization of novel organic, inorganic, hybrid, and multi-functional materials, and multi-component material systems exhibiting new phenomena and/or providing new scientific insights into structure/composition/property relationships in the solid state.  Special consideration is given to original synthetic routes, characterization of new material phenomena or superior behavior, interfacial material system structures and properties, and unraveling the relationships between structure/composition (e.g. hybrid or self- or programmed-assembled materials) and properties (e.g. charge and ionic transport, exciton diffusion, chemical reactivity and selectivity).  Present emphasis includes novel hybrid and multifunctional materials, environmentally-safe materials and materials for efficient energy harvesting, conversion and storage.
