Welcome to StonyBrookChem Safety Day 2023! Our inaugural Jon Rudick Memorial Safety Day Lecturer, Wai Lin Ng Brookhaven Lab reminds us - Safety is a discussion!

Metal organic frameworks at the edge of stability, and an audience at the edge of their seats. Congratulations Dr Chen Zhihengyu! The first of the group to defend StonyBrookChem. We are very proud of you.

We're looking forward catching up with everyone at the Denver X-ray Conference in Chicago #DXC2023

I'm back! Here to talk about the fantastic things we can learn about materials function from operando studies using high energy X-rays. Sydney Analytical

Check out Jeremy’s recent publication highlighting his thesis work on the effects of dual layer electrodes for Li-ion batteries, which made the Editor’s Choice Spotlight!🔋🎉 …mistry-europe.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ce…

Greatful for Stephen Koch and Michelle Millar for setting up the Franklin Award Lecture to bring inorganic chemistry trailblazers to StonyBrookChem

#OTB: Carbon capture is one strategy for mitigating the impacts of climate change. Researcher Karena Chapman and colleagues from StonyBrookChem (New York) are using the Brockhouse beamline at CLS to study metal-organic frameworks as one potential “sponge” for soaking up CO2.

One year in and we've doubled our team to design catalysts for decarbonization

First coordination polymers with glassy charge transport, now CPs with spin glassing! Congrats to Andrew, Ie-Rang, Karena Chapman, Chen Zhihengyu, Agnish, and Vaikuntanathan Lab on this cool work now out in J. Am. Chem. Soc.. Look at that memory effect 😍! pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…

Unleash the RAPTR 🦖 ROAR 🔥 Our in situ furnace provides a new window into dynamic structures and reaction kinetics by fast heating or quench cooling from RT to 1000C in less than 10s. StonyBrookChem GENESIS EFRC

📢 Reminder: Don't overlook those small "extra" diffraction peaks! 👀 These were key to resolving CO2 binding in our latest collaboration on MOFs for Direct Air Capture 🌱🌍 @stonybrookchem with @farhomies and Prof. V.P. Dravid pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

Congrats to my collaborator and good friend Tina Nenoff on her election to the National Academy "for translating fundamental understanding of nanoporous materials into applications with societal and national security impact" #NAE2024

Today’s PMI/Princeton Center for Complex Materials seminar: Karena Chapman (Karena Chapman) of Stony Brook University on “X-ray visions: Insights into functional energy materials”

Designing single-atom catalysts. Solitary confinement🔒on POM clusters isolated in MOF pores. A team effort from our #CD4DC U.S. Department of Energy EFRC Chen Zhihengyu StonyBrookChem The Hupp Group @rbgetman pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

What do synchrotron Xrays🔦🩻 and a webcam🎥 have in common? We use both to study nanoparticle synthesis🍳!!! While Xrays see the atomic details, the webcam captures the bigger picture🖼️ AND we don't need to wait for beamtime📅💅 Bryan Sanchez Monserrate StonyBrookChem pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

Behold, it's alive!🩺This dynamic 2D COF pulses with vitality, shifting from closed🔒 to half-open🔗to open🔓phases in mere seconds⏱️, all observed in real-time with lightning-fast in-situ X-rays🔦🩻 @AdvancedPhoton. Check out now in Nature Chemistry doi.org/10.1038/s41557…

🚨 We are hiring! We're looking for a new #chempostdoc to join our team at StonyBrookChem, focusing on exploring the structure-function relationships in MOFs using insitu Xrays. Apply here: stonybrooku.taleo.net/careersection/…

Self care tip💅from UiO66? Take it slow to fully relax. Using insitu Xrays🔦🩻 we see UiO66 shrinks when heated🔥 but only re-expands when cooled slowly🐢🧊. Cool too fast🏎️ & it gets trapped thanks to some twisted node dynamics! Simon Vornholt J. Am. Chem. Soc. doi.org/10.1021/jacs.4…

🐚ACC isn't just amorphous CaCO₃🫟!? Its missing CO₃²⁻—replaced by Cl⁻ & NO₃⁻🧪. And only cleans up its composition as it crystallizes✨ Read more in J. Am. Chem. Soc. with imaging📽️ & Xrays🔦🩻 StonyBrookChem and NMR🧲Iowa State Department of Chemistry @efrcgenesis pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…
