Enabling materials informatics for 29Si solid-state NMR of crystalline materials

Elements of informatics for combinatorial solid - state materials science

The main purpose of using combinatorial techniques for materials science studies is to achieve higher experimental throughput than what is possible when samples are synthesized and characterized one at a time. The instrumentation needed for performing high-throughput synthesis and characterization has seen rapid development in recent years. The software tools needed to connect all parts of the ...

Recent developments in solid-state NMR spectroscopy of crystalline microporous materials.

Microporous materials, having pores and channels on the same size scale as small to medium molecules, have found many important applications in current technologies, including catalysis, gas separation and drug storage and delivery. Many of their properties and functions are related to their detailed local structure, such as the type and distribution of active sites within the pores, and the sp...

Solid - state NMR spectroscopy for structural investigations in materials science

Materials for Solid State Lighting

Dramatic improvement in the efficiency of inorganic and organic light emitting diodes (LEDs and OLEDs) within the last decade has made these devices viable future energy efficient replacements for current light sources. However, both technologies must overcome major technical barriers, requiring significant advances in material science, before this goal can be achieved. Attention will be given ...

A Hybrid Solid‐State NMR and Electron Microscopy Structure‐Determination Protocol for Engineering Advanced para‐Crystalline Optical Materials

Hybrid magic-angle spinning (MAS) NMR spectroscopy and TEM were demonstrated for de novo structure determination of para-crystalline materials with a bioinspired fused naphthalene diimide (NDI)-salphen-phenazine prototype light-harvesting compound. Starting from chiral building blocks with C2 molecular symmetry, the asymmetric unit was determined by MAS NMR spectroscopy, index low-resolution TE...
