CRC 858 - B03: Understanding N-Heterocyclic Carbenes on Metal Surfaces – Properties & Applications
Basic data for this project
Type of project: Subproject in DFG-joint project hosted at University of Münster
Duration at the University of Münster: 01/01/2018 - 31/12/2021 | 3rd Funding period
Description
In recent years, N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) became a prominent class of molecules for metal surface modification. However, the knowledge about the behavior on the surface is still limited. The aim of project B03 is to gain a better and more detailed understanding about NHCs on different metal surfaces. Detailed scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) experiments in combination with computational studies will be applied, addressing both the influence of the NHC and the metal surface on surface reconstructions and the behavior of NHCs to act as controlled molecular rotors. Moreover, the influence of NHCs on electrode properties and on-surface reactions of NHCs will be studied in detail.
