VB Research Group

Inorganic Materials / Structural Chemistry Lab

Our focus is on making functionalized molecules based on heavier main-group/lanthanide ions and elucidating their properties. Extending molecular systems to hybrid materials and investigating their optical/magnetic/catalytic properties.
