Energy storage and chemical sensing technologies rely on controlling redox processes at the molecular level, yet highly reactive charged and open-shell states are often incompatible with stable device integration. In this seminar, I will discuss how molecular design principles rooted in organometallic chemistry enable redox-controlled function in organic energy storage ...
The human body is colonized by trillions of microorganisms that exert a profound influence on human biology, in part by providing functional capabilities that extend beyond those of host cells. In particular, there is growing evidence linking chemical processes carried out by the human gut and vaginal microbiomes to various ...
Ionic motion at the nanoscale remains poorly understood, largely because operando tools capable of resolving ions moving through a crystalline lattice have not existed until very recently. I will present several studies that use Coherent X-ray scattering techniques to directly image and probe ionic transport inside operating energy storage devices ...
