This award is funded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Public Law 111-5). In this project funded by the Inorganic, Bioinorganic, and Organometallic Chemistry Program of the Chemistry Division, Roald Hoffmann of Cornell University will use theoretical methods to understand structure and bonding in solids under high pressure and the bonding and electronic properties of extended structures of various dimensions. This research has the potential to identify new types of superconductors and to uncover new electronic materials. The PI will also recast the Mott-Jones or Hume-Rothery model for magic electron counts in intermetallic compounds into chemical terms. This work should result in a framework for understanding the properties of solids that is broadly applicable to chemical problems. The PI will also continue to promote science literacy to the general public through a variety of innovative media, including plays, poetry, public speaking, and cabaret acts.

该奖项是根据2009年美国复苏和再投资法案（公法111-5）资助的。 在这个由化学系无机，生物无机和有机化学计划资助的项目中，康奈尔大学的Roald Hoffmann将使用理论方法来理解高压下固体中的结构和键合以及各种尺寸的扩展结构的键合和电子特性。 这项研究有可能发现新型超导体和发现新的电子材料。 PI还将把金属间化合物中魔电子计数的Mott-Jones或Hume-Rothery模型改写为化学术语。这项工作应导致一个框架，了解广泛适用于化学问题的固体性质。 PI还将继续通过各种创新媒体，包括戏剧，诗歌，公开演讲和歌舞表演，向公众推广科学素养。
