Inhalt:

Based on

• Modern concepts of molecular and supramolecular organic chemistry

• Host-guest-systems

• Basic principles of molecular recognition

• Formation of molecular superstructures

• Syntheses and characterization of inorganic nanoparticles

• Formation of thin films

• Molecular functionalisation of surfaces

• and examination of the functioning of nanostructures (e.g. with mikroscopic, steady state and time resolved measurements)

the student shall be introduced to a pronounced interdisciplinary access to actual problems and research-issues in the field of molecular materials.
A. Analysis of non-covalent interactions in molecular materials; systematic representation of host-guest-chemistry and molecular recognition, experimental quantification of association-processes; molecular templates for efficient preparation of complex and functional molecular superstructures
B1. Principals of molecular switching via external stimuli; possibilities of “molecular computing”, electrical conductivity of molecular materials; molecular electronics and electronical active hybrid materials; Introduction to supramolecular catalysis.
B2. Synthesis of 1-, 2-, and 3-dimensional inorganic nanomaterials. Systematic approaches towards nanoparticles of defined size and structure and with tailored properties. Optical, electrical, and mechanical properties. Sensing, biomedical, and semiconductor device applications.
B3. Properties of low-dimensional carbon allotropes (fullerenes, carbon nanotubes and graphene); fundamental physico-chemical aspect of nanoscale-carbon-allotropes (spectroscopy and microscopy), optoelectronical applications of carbon-Allotropes
C. Seminar: presentation and discussion of current topics in the field of molecular materials. The teachers provide support for the students during preparation of their presentation. Performance style and content should be discussed intensively.
D. Lab-course (5 experiments, see docket): syntheses, modifications and funktionalisations of molecular nanostructures (e.g. fullerenes, nanotubes, graphene, inorganic nanoparticles, ultrathin molecular films). Characterization of the structural and functional properties of these materials (NMR-, MS-, UV/Vis/NIR-, emission-, Raman-spectroscopy, XPS, conductivity, HR microscopy (TEM, AFM, STM))
