Enantioselective Reactions on Model Chirally Modified Surfaces (ENREMOS)

Start date: Jan 1, 2014, End date: Dec 31, 2018,

Imparting chirality to non-chiral metal surfaces by adsorption of chiral modifiers is a highly promising route to create effective heterogeneously catalyzed processes for production of enantiopure pharmaceuticals. A molecular-level understanding of enantioselective processes on chiral surfaces is an importance prerequisite for the rational design of new enantiospecific catalysts. With the research ...

Structure and Bonding at Oxide-Liquid Interfaces (STRUBOLI)

Start date: Dec 1, 2011, End date: Nov 30, 2016,

"The understanding of interfacial chemistry requires knowledge of interface properties at the atomic scale. Surface science studies provided microscopic details from surfaces in vacuum environment and electrochemists followed up to show that similar details might be obtained from electrode-electrolyte interfaces. For mineral-solution interfaces, however, our knowledge is still almost exclusively b ...

Van der Waals Interactions in Complex Materials (VDW-CMAT)

Start date: Sep 1, 2011, End date: Aug 31, 2016,

"Van der Waals (vdW) interactions are ubiquitous in nature, playing a major role in defining the structure, stability, and function for a wide variety of molecules and materials. VdW forces make the existence of molecular liquids and solids possible; they largely control protein-protein and drug-protein binding inside our bodies; they give geckos the ability to “defy gravity” attaching to walls an ...

A molecular laboratory on a chip (MOLCHIP)

Start date: Feb 1, 2010, End date: Jan 31, 2015,

The manipulation of atoms above a chip using magnetic fields produced by current carrying wires is a mature field of research. This field was inspired by the notion that miniaturization of magnetic field structures enables the creation of large field gradients, i.e., large forces and tight potentials for atoms. It also has been crucial that present-day microelectronics technology makes it possible ...
