May-July 2010
Matthew Stevens (University of Massachusetts, Amherst) just joined the group as a DAAD-RISE student over the summer.
|
|
May 2010
Our in-house collaboration wih the Limberg group on the coordination chemistry of clickates has led to another key publication to appear in Chemistry - A European Journal.
|

February 2010
THREEPEAT again: Ragnar has received both the prestigious Fischer-Nernst-Preis as well as the Feodoy Lynen Fellowship and his review on "Artificial Light-Gated Catalyst Systems" has been accepted by Angewandte Chemie. Congratulations!
|
|
February 2010
The inaugural issue of Polymer Chemistry just appeared featuring Sebastian's work on exponentially grown polyglutamate dendrimers as the inside front cover.
|
|
Fall 2009
THREEPEAT: Sebastian's extensive work on peptide and pseudopeptide architectures will be published in early 2010 - congratulations Sepp!
|
|
May-June-July 2009
Ragnar, Sebastian, and Robert are finally PhinisheD - Congratulations! You guys were very special and will sorely be missed.
|
|
June-July 2009
Matthew Golder (University of Rochester, New York) just joined the group over the summer as a DAAD-RISE student.
|
|
June 2009
Marie has just been selected to receive a prestigious Kekule Doctoral Fellowship of the Fonds der Chemischen Industrie - Congratulations!
|
|
May 2009
The collaborative research center SFB 658 "Molecular Switches at Surfaces" will be funded for a 2nd period of four years - this is good news and motivation as there is certainly plenty of work ahead.
|
|
February 2009
In collaboration with the groups of Dr. Leonhard Grill (Dept. Phys., FU Berlin) and Prof. Christian Joachim (CEMES-CNRS, Toulouse) we were able to exploit our recently developed on-surface polymerization methodology to prepare long defect-free polyfluorene wires and charge transport was measured through a single wire continuously as a function of its length. The publication just appeared in Science.
|
|
January 2009
Our joint efforts with the group of Prof. Paolo Samori (ISIS Strasbourg) to utilize conformational changes in "clickates" induced by changes in pH or metal ion coordination to switch 2D self-assembly at the liquid-solid interface are described in a recent communication in Chemistry A European Journal.
|
|
September 2008
Our work on periodic switching, carried out together with the group of Dr. Leonhard Grill (Dept. Phys., FU Berlin), has just appeared in Nature Nanotechnology and describes a fundamentally new approach to address multiple switches collectively in a regular "switching lattice" on a metal surface.
|
|
July 2008
Recent work by Ragnar & Maike on photoswitchable bases, which can be utilized as "smart" catalysts, has been highlighted in Science as well as Chemical & Engineering News. See the original communication in Angewandte Chemie and the full article in the Journal of the American Chemical Society.
|
|
May 2008
Maike's & Ragnar's work on photoswitchable bases just got accepted and will be published in a forthcoming issue of Angewandte Chemie. Congratulations also to research student Andreas Kühn, who synthesized the second generation base.
|
|
May-June 2008
Mary Nguyen (UT Austin) is joining the group over the summer as an NSF CESRI Fellow.
|
|
April 23-24, 2008
Chemistry double header "Tag der Chemie" und "Innovationskongress Chemie und Biotechnologie" in Adlershof!
|
|
March 2008
Robert's work on "clickamers" just got accepted and will be published in a forthcoming issue of Angewandte Chemie.
|
|
February 2008
Collaborative work with Dr. Leonhard Grill (Dept. Phys., FU Berlin) on covalent 1D and 2D architectures has been featured in several perspective and highlight articles, including Science, Angewandte Chemie, and Nachrichten der Chemie. See the original paper in Nature Nanotechnology.
