➀ Matthew Stephens of Impact Nano has over 20 years of experience in advanced materials commercialization.
➁ Impact Nano is a tier 2 supplier specializing in advanced materials for semiconductor manufacturing.
➂ The company addresses challenges in materials innovation, scale-up, and manufacturing sustainability.
➀ Researchers at the Institute of Organic Chemistry, University of Vienna, have presented an innovative approach to the synthesis of Azaparacyclophanes (APCs), a class of highly developed ring-shaped molecular structures with great potential for materials science.
➁ The new CTM method uses the 'Pd-catalyzed Buchwald-Hartwig cross-coupling reaction' to create π-conjugated cyclic structures, offering a direct and efficient way to produce APCs.
➂ The method is flexible, allowing the production of APCs with different ring sizes and functional groups, and is scalable and reproducible.
➀ Researchers at the Fritz-Haber Institute have developed the Automatic Process Explorer (APE), an approach that enhances our understanding of atomic and molecular processes.
➁ APE reveals unexpected complexities in the oxidation of palladium (Pd) surfaces, providing new insights into catalyst behavior.
➂ By using machine-learned interatomic potentials (MLIPs), APE predicts atomic interactions and improves the accuracy of simulations.
➀ Researchers at the Fritz-Haber Institute have made progress in electrocatalysis, revealing how catalysts can remain in unexpected forms during nitrate reduction processes.
➁ The study, published in Nature Materials, uses advanced microscopy and spectroscopy techniques to observe changes in catalysts during reactions, challenging previous assumptions about catalyst behavior.
➂ The findings could pave the way for more efficient catalyst designs, particularly in ammonia production from nitrates, offering a potential alternative to traditional Haber-Bosch process with reduced carbon emissions.
