The morphology of nanoscale materials such as the size and the shape of the nanoparticles and nanocrystals can dramatically affect their properties. Research on nanoscale materials is motivated by the observation that materials, previously only known in their bulk phase, show a significant change in physical and chemical properties or even exhibit novel phenomena at the nanoscale due to a high surface-to-volume ratio and finite size effects. The thorough characterization and understanding of these properties in interplay with nanoscopic length scales will ultimately guide the way to the exploitation of these effects in applications, including high density storage media and biomedical materials. The group of nanoscale chemistry is focusing on the synthesis of inorganic, organic, and hybrid nanomaterials. For instance, we develop new methods to synthesize single-crystalline inorganic nanowires and nanocrystals directly inside the carbon nanotubes. On even a smaller scale, single metal ions and small clusters are encapsulated inside fullerenes during their formation in arc-discharge synthesis forming endohedral fullerenes. Carbon nanostructures in such hybrid materials act not only as templating matrices but also as protecting shields stabilizing the nanosized forms of inorganic materials. Unique electronic, transport, and magnetic properties of these hybrid heterostructures are achieved due to nanosize of encapsulated structures and the interface effects at the boundary with the carbon π-system are then studied in close cooperation with other groups of IFW. Reducing only one dimension to nanoscopic length scale we have to consider ultrathin layers of the materials. The charge carrier densities of ultrathin layers which are part of an electric double layer can be influenced strongly by applying an electrochemical potential. Our aim is to investigate how huge charge carrier densities will influence the electric and magnetic properties of appropriate materials. 

Fullerenes Group

The empty space inside the fullerene cage can be filled with atom, ions, clusters, or even small molecules. The fullerenes with encapsulated species are called endohedral fullerenes. Particular focus of our work is the synthesis of endohedral metallofullerenes (EMFs) with different clusters. The group in IFW Dresden pioneered in the development of the reactive atmosphere method, in which NH3 or CH4 gases are used as a source of nitrogen or hydrogen in the arc-discharge synthesis of EMF. More recent developments include the use of solid nitrogen-containing organic compounds as the sources of nitrogen. Reaction atmosphere method results in the dramatic suppression of the empty fullerene formation, leading to EMFs as the main fullerene products. We are also looking for new types of EMFs, which led to the discovery of such clusterfullerenes as Sc3CH@C80, Sc2S@C82, or TiLu2C@C80. Encapsulation of metal atoms within the carbon-based π-system results in a variety of unprecedented chemical and physical properties of EMFs. In IFW Dresden we are specifically focused on the electron-transfer mechanism in EMFs as studied by electrochemistry and spectroelectrochemistry, and on the magnetic properties of lanthanide-based EMFs, including their single molecule magnetism. Experimental studies are accompanied by quantum-chemical calculations of molecular structure, spectroscopic properties, and spin states.

Functional crystals on the nanoscale

Scaling a material down to nanometer-size reveals several opportunities to increase physical properties compared to bulk material or even create new ones. When quantum effects come into play electrical conductivity, magnetic permeability and chemical reactivity change as a function of particle size. Our approach uses carbon nanotubes (CNT) as a reaction container for the synthesis of intermetallic nanoparticles. With the given diameter of the tube particle size becomes adjustable. Furthermore the presence of the CNT-surrounding eases the reduction to metallic particle and protects nanoparticles from chemical influences (e.g. oxidation). Depending on the used material one obtains single particles or nano wires inside the inner cavity of the CNT. CNT have been filled for example with elements of main group IV in their metallic state. 3 different procedures to post synthetically fill the inner cavity of the CNT were used and by variation of the reaction parameters the appearance of filling particles, degree of filling and the purity of the samples in terms of coating to filling particle ratio can be tailored. These filled CNT with high rates of filling are promising for sensoric and energy storage applications.

 

The interest on 2D materials is rapidly growing and chemical approaches offer absolute control over the structure of 2D materials at the molecular-level. The chemical approach will serve as strategy to develop new multifunctional systems, featuring exceptional physical or chemical properties with optimal control over the correlation between structure and function. Our research currently focusses on the chemical vapor transport (CVT) in sealed ampules. One example is the CVT of bismuth chalcogenides nanostructures (Bi2Ch3; Ch = S, Se, Te) which can be synthesized by catalyst-free decomposition sublimation. The nanostructures directly grow on Si/SiO2 substrates by a vapor−solid growth mechanism and show high degree of crystallinity with dimensions of >10 μm in length and simultaneously <10 nm in height (nanoribbons). In order to optimize the growth process in a reproducible way we realize parallel thermodynamic calculations. The electrical transport data are evidence that this approach offers the chance to synthesize and investigate crystals with high quality and to measure surface state properties.

HeatCNT
In this EFRE (European Regional Development Fund) project, the IFW Dresden and the Fraunhofer-Institut für Fertigungstechnik u. Angewandte Materialforschung, develop a composite material made of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in a copper matrix for application as a heat-exchange medium. By playing with different fabrication parameters such as the alignment of the CNTs, their volume fraction, and selective etching that leaves CNTs partially exposed, it is possible to tailor the thermal properties of the material for specific radiative, convective and conducting applications.

Group Organic Single Crystals

Small molecule single crystals as highly ordered systems allow for investigation of fundamental electronic properties of organic semiconductors. We grow high-purity organic single crystals and investigate charge transport, electronic correlations and charge transfer effects. The crystals are fully characterized by means of X-ray diffraction, atomic force microscopy (AFM), scanning Kelvin probe microscopy, and optical spectroscopy. Electronic transport properties are investigated by means of temperature-dependent multi-terminal conductivity, field effect transistor (FET), and Hall Effect measurements. To reach very high charge carrier concentrations we build charge transfer interfaces and use different ionic gate dielectrics.

Spectroelectrochemistry group

We kindly invite you to participate in the 

6th Summer School Spectroelectrochemistry 2023.

 

Spectroelectrochemistry as the combination of electrochemistry and various spectroscopic methods delivers detailed information on the electron transfer reactions in organic semiconductors:

(i) detection of electrochemically generated species;

(ii) their characterization (structure, properties, stability);

(iii) concentration profile of charge carriers in dependence of applied potential;

(iv) elucidation of the electrochemical reaction mechanism.

We are studing π-conjugated organic structures (small organic molecules, oligomers, conducting polymers etc.), carbon nanostructures (nanotubes, empty and endohedral fullerenes, and their functional derivatives etc.), hybrid molecular structures (metal-organic compounds, coordination complexes, endohedral metallofullerenes etc.), reactive oxygen species (ROS) in solution.

We have an expertise in various electrochemical and spectroscopic techniques and their combinations for in situ measurements:

  • Electron Spin (Paramagnetic) Resonance (ESR/EPR) spectroelectrochemistry
  • Ultraviolet-Visible-Near infrared (UV-vis-NIR) spectroelectrochemistry
  • EPR/UV-vis-NIR spectroelectrochemistry (triple method)
  • Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroelectrochemistry
  • Luminescence spectroelectrochemistry
  • Fourier-Transform-Infrared (FTIR)  spectroelectrochemistry
  • Raman spectroelectrochemistry

Synthesis of Novel Quantum Materials

Our main focus of research is the synthesis of quantum materials. Materials that exhibit the phenomena arising from quantum mechanical properties of the electrons such as Mott transition, high temperature superconductivity, topological insulators (Weyl & Dirac semimetals) and quantum spin liquids etc., We aim to synthesize these quantum materials and establish the structure property relationship.

Sulfur based quantum materials: Plethora of novel phenomena occur at the phase boundary of insulator to metal, popularly known as Mott-transition caused by the repulsive Coulomb interactions between the electrons. We explore novel sulfides, in particular in the field of sulfur based quantum materials such as BaFe2S3, TMP2S6, TMS2 (TM=transtition metal). In our recent investigation on BaFe2S3 we have established such a bandwidth controlled insulator-metal transition. In another investigation we have shown effects of the magnetic correlations and effective tuning of magnetic anisotropy in (FeNi)2P2S6 & (MnNi)P2S6

Topological based quantum Materials: Dirac semimetals with multiple degenerate points of the electron band structure, which were predicted recently.  We explore novel synthesis techniques to synthesize and investigate the electronic structure. In our recent investigation on cubic PtBi2 we have successfully shown such triple fermions very near to the Fermi level. Where as trigonal PtBi2 is superconducting at 600 mK.
