Chemical Selectivity

How can the codesign of physicochemical properties of multicomponent interphase coatings be tailored to provide desired chemical redox selectivity?

Thrust C Goals

(i) Understand in atomistic detail the function of encapsulated molecular reaction centers

(ii) Co-design spatially distinct interphases for species-specific permeabilities and stabilities at low flux

Methods and Approaches

  • Atomistic first principles theory
  • Molecular dynamics simulations
  • Molecular-level spatial control of multicomponent surface coatings
  • Nanoreactor-level characterization of electrical and electrochemical properties
