The new director of the Melville Lab, Wilhelm Huck, has made a gentle transition from supramolecular chemistry to nanochemistry in recent years.
A choice of projects is available in the general area of supramolecular chemistry.
A variety of supramolecular architectures such as double and triple helices, triangles and grids can be prepared.
We are interested in the ways in which the properties of metals and molecules can be tailored to produce supramolecular assemblies with interesting properties.
Example of a cyclic aggregate We have used this sequential assembly approach to design red and blue luminescent solid state supramolecular arrays.
