U.S.-India Cooperative Research: Studies of Cynometalate Modified Electrodes-Electrocatalysis and Sensor Development,Award in Indian and U.S. Currency

9604863 Bocarsly描述：该奖项是为了表彰美国-印度在基于新型氰酸酯修饰电极的电化学传感器领域的研究合作。 共同研究人员是普林斯顿大学的安德鲁·博卡尔斯利和泰米尔纳德邦中央电化学研究所（CERI）的Prabhakara Rao。 他们的研究将集中在铂（II）和钯（II）与氰尿酸盐形成聚合物结构的结构和反应性。 这些材料形成具有不寻常的光化学和电化学性质的水凝胶状结构。 Bocarsly的兴趣是这些材料的固态特性，而Rao博士将研究这些系统的潜在传感器应用。 这两个小组都在电化学和电化学方法的使用方面有很强的基础。 这两个实验室现有的专门知识和设施是互补的，应通过合作得到加强。 范围：这项研究将为目前由NSF化学部资助的国内研究增加国际成分。 导致这种合作的讨论是深思熟虑的，深思熟虑的，并指出了互利的坚实科学工作的潜力。 CERI是中央政府的一个研究机构，由科学和工业研究理事会管理。科学和工业研究委员会实验室的使命是进行符合国家优先事项和印度作为工业国家发展的研究。 ***

9604863 Bocarsly Description: This award is for a US-Indo research collaboration in the field of electrochemical sensors based on new cyanometalate modified electrodes. The co-investigators are Andrew Bocarsly of Princeton University and Prabhakara Rao of the Central Electrochemical Research Institute (CERI) in Tamil Nadu. Their studies will focus on the structure and reactivity of platinum(II) and palladium(II) complexes with cyanometallates that form polymeric structures. These materials form hydrogel-like structures with unusual photochemical and electrochemical properties. Bocarsly's interest is the solid-state properties of these materials, while Dr. Rao will pursue the potential sensor applications of these systems. Both groups are strongly grounded in electrochemistry and the use of electrochemical methods. The expertise and facilities available at these two laboratories are complementary and should be enhanced by the collaboration. Scope: This research will add an international component to domestic research that is currently funded by the NSF Division of Chemistry. The discussions leading to this collaboration have been thoughtful, deliberate and point to the potential that solid scientific work of mutual benefit will result. CERI is a research facility of the central government that is managed by the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR). The mission of CSIR laboratories is to conduct research consistent with national priorities and India's development as an industrial nation. ***
