To celebrate his upcoming 77th birthday, we reached out to nanochemist and long-time ASN contributor, Geoffery Ozin, to discuss his colorful career, current projects, and plans for the future.
Results for "carbon"
Research priorities to support local climate policy
Growing momentum for decentralized climate policy and the falling costs of low‐carbon technologies are creating new climate change mitigation opportunities for subnational actors.
Selective cross-coupling of reactive lithium compounds made possible
A new catalyst facilitates the first general protocol for the cross-coupling of aryl chlorides and reactive organolithium reagents.
Ion-Pump Photovoltaics
Inspired by nature, researchers create a new kind of photoelectric generator based on a bacterial ion pump.
Computer simulations of organic materials for next-generation batteries
Computer simulations provide a better means of optimizing, predicting, and understanding experimental observations in the search for new battery materials.
No longer just solar sharing: Bringing agrivoltaics to the next level
Semi-transparent solar cells allow plants and solar energy to be efficiently generated on the same crop land.
Simplifying the design of soft robotic actuators
A new layer-by-layer fabrication process allows researchers to create new and improved soft robot actuators with variable degrees of stiffness.
Mussels and chameleons inspire a new type of sensor
Scientists design a stretchable, adhesive, self-healing material that can change color as a result of movement for real-time motion sensors.
Tierui Zhang: Scientific research is a process of exploring the unknown
Celebrating “10 years of Advanced Energy Materials Research,” Tierui Zhang opens up about his scientific career and his rather unique hobby of chemistry stamp collecting.
One step closer to producing green hydrogen fuels
Researchers design a photo-electrochemical reactor to produce affordable “green” hydrogen.
