"This award is funded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Public Law 111-5)."Professors James D. Batteas of Texas A&M and Charles M. Drain of Hunter College of CUNY are supported by the Analytical and Surface Chemistry Program in the Division of Chemistry to systematically design and synthesize a series of porphyrin and alkyl based molecular assemblies and orient them on metal surfaces. Molecular connectivity and local environment will be varied in order to rationally manipulate the electron transport properties of the molecules. The aim is to develop a global view of interfacial electron transport between optoelectronic molecules and substrates. The work encompasses molecular design, synthesis, and characterization by an array of spectroscopic techniques and theoretical methods. The ultimate goal is to develop a comprehensive understanding of charge transfer and conductance in these assemblies in order to facilitate the development of nanoscale electronics. Students participating in this collaborative project will gain broad education and training in multidisciplinary research areas critical to the continued development of molecular electronics. The research results will be incorporated in undergraduate courses, and in presentations at K-12 schools.

“这项奖励是根据2009年美国复苏和再投资法案（公法111-5）资助的。”德克萨斯a&m大学的James D. Batteas教授和纽约市立大学亨特学院的Charles M. Drain教授在化学系分析和表面化学项目的支持下，系统地设计和合成了一系列卟啉和烷基基分子组件，并将它们定向在金属表面上。为了合理地控制分子的电子传递性质，分子的连通性和局部环境会发生变化。目的是在光电分子和衬底之间建立一个全面的界面电子传输视图。工作包括分子设计，合成，并通过光谱技术和理论方法的阵列表征。最终目标是全面了解这些组件中的电荷转移和电导，以促进纳米级电子学的发展。参与该合作项目的学生将在分子电子学的持续发展至关重要的多学科研究领域获得广泛的教育和培训。研究结果将被纳入本科课程，并在K-12学校的演讲中。
