With this award from the Chemistry Research Instrumentation and Facilities: Multi-user (CRIF:MU) program, Professor Karin Ruhlandt-Senge and colleague Jon Zubieta from Syracuse University will acquire a single-source single crystal X-ray diffractometer equipped with a low temperature device. The proposal is aimed at enhancing research training and education at all levels, especially in areas of study such as (a) new reagents, polymerization initiators and superbases, (b) solid-state coordination chemistry of organic/inorganic hybrid materials (c) use of terahertz (far-infrared, 200 wavenumbers) vibrational spectroscopy, (d) studies of inorganic pyrophosphate, (e) single crystal X-ray analysis of semiconductive quantum dot precursor complexes (f) solar cell design that produce photocurrent from low-energy, near-IR photons, as well as (g) molecular mechanisms for the assembly and regulation for the MLLI core complex.An X-ray diffractometer allows accurate and precise measurements of the full three dimensional structure of a molecule, including bond distances and angles, and provides accurate information about the spatial arrangement of a molecule relative to neighboring molecules. The studies described here will impact a number of areas, including organic and inorganic chemistry, materials chemistry and biochemistry. This instrument will be an integral part of teaching as well as research and will also be available to local academic institutions for research and teaching purposes, including LeMoyne College, SUNY Onondaga Community College, SUNY Cortland, SUNY Oswego, King's College and Hamilton College.

凭借化学研究仪器和设施：多用户（CRIF：MU）计划的这一奖项，来自锡拉丘兹大学的Karin Ruhlandt-Senge教授和同事Jon Zubieta将获得一台配备低温设备的单源单晶X射线衍射仪。该提案旨在加强各级的研究培训和教育，特别是在以下研究领域：（a）新试剂、聚合引发剂和超强碱，（B）有机/无机混合材料的固态配位化学，（c）太赫兹的使用。（远红外，200波数）振动光谱，（d）无机焦磷酸盐的研究，（f）从低能量、近红外光子产生光电流的太阳能电池设计，以及（g）MLLI核心复合物的组装和调节的分子机制。射线衍射仪允许准确和精确地测量分子的完整三维结构，包括键距和角度，并提供关于分子相对于相邻分子的空间排列的准确信息。这里描述的研究将影响许多领域，包括有机和无机化学，材料化学和生物化学。这一工具将成为教学和研究的一个组成部分，也将提供给当地学术机构用于研究和教学目的，包括LeMoyne学院、纽约州立大学Onondaga社区学院、纽约州立大学科特兰、纽约州立大学奥斯韦戈、国王学院和汉密尔顿学院。
