In this award, funded by the Chemical Structure, Dynamics and Mechanisms (CSDM-A) Program of the Division of Chemistry, Professor Martin T. Zanni of the University of Wisconsin - Madison and his graduate and undergraduate research students are investigating the chemical structures of molecules at interfaces. They do this using heterodyne detected, two-dimensional, sum-frequency generation spectroscopy. Specific molecules to be studied include small organometallic species and biomolecules.The ultimate goal of the work by Professor Zanni and his group is to develop powerful new methods to probe the structure and behavior of complex molecules at interfaces. Interfaces are ubiquitous in nature, including the surfaces of cells. The development of experimental methods that are only sensitive to chemical species at the surface has been important in developing a better understanding of the chemistry in this unique milieu. Along the way, Prof. Zanni will build a strong, interdisciplinary program in physical chemistry and will train a new generation of researchers for the technological workforce.

在这项由化学系化学结构、动力学和机理(CSDM-A)计划资助的奖项中，威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校的Martin T.Zanni教授和他的研究生和本科生正在研究界面分子的化学结构。他们使用外差探测的二维和频产生光谱来实现这一点。要研究的特定分子包括金属有机小物种和生物分子。赞尼教授和他的团队工作的最终目标是开发强大的新方法来探索复杂分子在界面上的结构和行为。界面在自然界中无处不在，包括细胞的表面。只对表面化学物种敏感的实验方法的发展对于更好地理解这种独特环境中的化学是很重要的。在此过程中，Zanni教授将在物理化学领域建立一个强大的跨学科项目，并将为技术劳动力培训新一代研究人员。
