Characterization of Organic Compounds for Electronic Materials and Energy Storage

Abstract

The design, synthesis and characterization of organic compounds for energy storage, for hydrocarbon fuels and for electronic materials are critical to the mission of DoD. --We propose to purchase instrumentation for a characterization facility for organic molecules spanning a range of design elements and properties. The proposed instrumentation is a liquid chromatograph with mass spectrometric detection (LC-MS), a gas chromatograph with mass spectrometric detection (GC-MS), a UV-vis-NIR spectrometer, a Fourier transfer infra-red spectrometer (FT-IR), and an inert atmosphere glove-box, which will broaden the suite of samples that can be analyzed by facilitating their preparation under an inert gas and moisture-free, atmosphere. --The proposed instrumentation will enable synthesis of molecules that are currently not accessible, and it will enable, the characterization of molecules that is essential to understanding their properties and supporting the design of next-generation, materials. The instrumentation will be vital in providing a modern education to a broad and diverse community of students and postd,octoral researchers in science and engineering, while providing enhanced capabilities to DoD-funded research projects that are ongoing. The design, synthesis and characterization of organic compound,s for energy storage, for hydrocarbon fuels and for electronic materials are critical to the mission of DoD. --We propose to purchas,e instrumentation for a characterization facility for organic molecules spanning a range of design elements and properties.
