UV-Visible-Near IR Spectrophotometer for the Study of Reactive Chemical Species and Small-Molecule Reactivity in Metal-Organic Frameworks
Abstract
The Defense University Research Instrumentation Program (DURIP) is designed to improve the capabilities of U.S. Universities to conduct research and to educate scientists and engineers in selected technical areas of importance to national defense. DURIP funding provides for the acquisition of research equipment and instrumentation for this purpose. The objective of this effort is to purchase a Ultraviolet-Visible-Near Infrared (UV-Vis-NIR) spectrometer system. This proposal is for the purchase of a Ultraviolet-Visible-Near Infrared (UV-Vis-NIR) spectrometer system. The P.I., Professor Dave Harris, of Northwestern University will use the equipment to augment and enhance research capabilities in the area of porphyrin-based MOF reactivity and the stabilization of reactive species. Specifically, the Ultraviolet-Visible-Near Infrared (UV-Vis-NIR) system will be used to collect spectra spanning the UV to NIR; enable reaction studies with gas-phase substrates; and enable collection of spectra across a wider temperature range.
