Congrats to Niamh for receiving the Undergraduate Research Award in Chemistry!

A first-year student, Skylar Sherman, has joined the Dukovic group. Welcome Skylar!

In a new perspective in the Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters, James Utterback et al describe our work on trapped-hole diffusion at nanocrystal surfaces, done in collaboration with the Eaves group at the University of Colorado Boulder.

In a new publication in the Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters Orion Pearce et al, led by Niels Damrauer , use NMR spectroscopic techniques to probe how a ruthenium-based water oxidation catalyst binds to CdS QDs. The findings point toward a surprising binding orientation that has implications for hole transfer...

Here is a story about our collaboration with the Elliott Lab at Boston University on photochemical carbon-carbon bond formation.

In a new publication in ACS Catalysis Brown et al demonstrate control, via photo-excitation rate, of MoFe protein's catalytic product distribution when coupled to light-absorbing CdS QDs. This work, led by our collaborators at NREL, enables tuning of the catalytic system bias toward desirable ammonia production over other competitive processes.

Congrats to Nicholas for successfully defending his Master's thesis!

In a new publication in the Journal of the American Chemical Society, Chica et al use EPR spectroscopy to monitor redox changes at the metal centers of MoFe protein when coupled to light-absorbing CdS QDs. This work, led by our collaborators at NREL, builds toward a fundamental understanding of how...

Congrats to group alum Dr. James Utterback for being named a 2020 Beckman postdoctoral fellow!

Kristina succeessfully defended her dissertation. Congratulations Dr. Vrouwenvelder!
