Light Controlled Reactivity of Metal Complexes

Termin:

Fördergeber:
Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG)
In March 2017 the Senate of the German Research Foundation established the Priority Program "Light Controlled Reactivity of Metal Complexes" (SPP 2102). The program is designed to run for six years. The present call invites for the first three-year funding period.

The design of the potential energy of the electronically excited states in discrete metal complexes is of utmost importance for unveiling and exploiting the photophysics and photochemistry of this class of compounds. The Priority Program aims at the development of rational design concepts for new functional photoactive metal complexes. At the core of the program is the fundamental understanding of photoinduced metal-centered processes and the dynamics of electronically excited states of metal complexes.

In order to coherent and focussed projects, the Priority Program will deal with the photophysics and photochemistry of molecular complexes of 3d-5d and 4f-5f metal centers. Metal-organic frameworks, coordination polymers, and solid-state materials are excluded. The metal-free materials, compounds of the s- and p-blockmetals, nanoparticles, quantum dots. The metalcenter or the metalcentres of a well-defined, molecular and discrete complex should be in the primary optical processes, such as excitation, emission, electron transfer or bond activation.
