    Targeted small molecule fluorescent probes for the detection of mobile zinc

    Zinc mis-regulation is associated with a wide range of disease states and there is an ongoing need to study the behaviour of 'mobile' or 'free' zinc to better understand its role in their development and progression. Small molecule fluorescent probes are commonly used for this purpose, and a significant number of probes have been...

    Chemical and Electrochemical Energy Storage Facilitated by Lithium Imide

    This event is open to final year undergraduate project students, PhD students, post-doctoral researchers and academic staff. Effective energy storage is one of the keys to our transition to a sustainable energy system, and is likely to require a mixture of approaches including batteries and sustainable hydrogen-based fuels. Lithium imide has emerged as a...

    Maximising dissymmetry and handling directionality in chiral materials

    We have an ongoing interest in the development of conjugated chiral organic molecules which can emit and detect circularly-polarized (CP) light within thin film materials and in organic electronic devices. CP light is central to many applications, including data storage, quantum computation, biosensing, environmental monitoring and display technologies. Such technologies require the generation of...

    Electron Diffraction -- an innovative and advantageous tool for structure determination of nanocrystalline materials

    Abstract: MicroED (microcrystal electron diffraction) is emerging as a powerful technique for the structural elucidation of challenging compounds as it bypasses the main limitation of growing crystals of suitable size for single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Applications range from natural products and pharmacology to geological sciences, advanced materials, nanotechnology, and many more. MicroED is also merging...
