项目摘要

Professor Richard M. Crooks of the University of Texas at Austin is supported by the Analytical and Surface Chemistry Program in the Division of Chemistry to conduct research on the synthesis and characterization of novel dendrimer-encapsulated nanoparticles (DENs) containing less than 250 atoms. More specifically, alloy and core/shell bimetallic DENs consisting of one noble metal and one non-noble metal, and DENs consisting of one metal and one metal oxide will be synthesized and characterized by EXAFS, high-energy XRD/pair distribution function analysis, and near-atom-resolved STEM/X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy methods. The materials are specifically chosen to be model nanoparticle catalysts that are small enough to accommodate discrete Fourier transform (DFT) calculations, allowing comparison of the experimentally determined properties of these structurally-complex nanoparticles with theory. This establishes a route to the fundamental understanding of catalyst operation through structure-function relationships, which is a central challenge in the field of catalysis. This research will expose students and postdoctoral researcher to high quality research through training on state-of-the-art instruments, workshops and other innovative educational activities.

Richard M.得克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校的克鲁克斯得到了化学系分析和表面化学项目的支持，对含有少于250个原子的新型树枝状聚合物封装纳米颗粒（DENs）的合成和表征进行研究。更具体地说，将合成由一种贵金属和一种非贵金属组成的合金和核/壳型双金属电致发光材料，以及由一种金属和一种金属氧化物组成的双金属电致发光材料，并通过EXAFS、高能XRD/对分布函数分析和近原子分辨STEM/X射线能量色散光谱法进行表征。这些材料被特别选择为模型纳米颗粒催化剂，其足够小以适应离散傅里叶变换（DFT）计算，从而允许将这些结构复杂的纳米颗粒的实验确定的性质与理论进行比较。这通过结构-功能关系建立了对催化剂操作的基本理解的路线，这是催化领域的核心挑战。这项研究将使学生和博士后研究人员通过对最先进的仪器，研讨会和其他创新教育活动的培训来进行高质量的研究。
