Thermochemistry of Transition Metal Ligand Bonds

教授P.B.Armentrout是由实验支持 物理化学课程。 他正在研究一些 用于生产催化材料的分子系统 和非常短命的化学物质 中间体的这项研究是通过一种叫做 流动余辉质谱 在这项工作中，流动余辉源的设计， 提供了电离的物质，这些物质被热化， 很好地描述了内部能量。本研究中使用的样本 工作是配位不饱和过渡金属中心 而且寿命极短，因此， 用引导离子束质谱仪这些短暂的物种 是许多商业用途中重要的反应中间体， 催化过程。

Professor P.B.Armentrout is supported by the Experimental Physical Chemistry Program. He is studying a number of molecular systems used in the production of catalytic materials and very short lived chemical species known as reaction intermediates. This research is done by a technique called flowing afterglow mass spectroscopy. In this work,the flowing afterglow source is designed to provide ionized species which are thermalized and hence have well characterized internal energies. The samples used in this work are coordinatively unsaturated transition metal centers and are extremely short lived; as a result, they are detected by a guided ion beam mass spectrometer. These transient species are important reaction intermediates in many commercial catalytic processes.
