报告人简介:
Prof. Chia-Kuang Frank Tsung received his undergraduate training at National Sun-Yet Sun University in Taiwan, where he received his B. S. degree. He then moved on to UC Santa Barbara, where he pursued a doctoral degree in the laboratory of Galen D. Stucky. As a graduate student, he carried out research at the forefront of materials chemistry, focusing on the synthesis and characterization of metal and metal oxide nanostructures. After his productive graduate studies, Prof. Tsung moved to UC Berkeley, where he became a postdoctoral fellow with Gabor Somorjai and Peidong Yang. Frank’s postdoctoral work centered on the development of high performance heterogeneous catalysts. Prof. Tsung joined the chemistry faculty at Boston College in the summer of 2010 and has established a compelling research program. Prof. Tsung is interested in identifying new approaches to change the behavior of heterogeneous catalysis in a fundamental way. His research strategy is based on the molecular-level control of the catalytic transformation through tuning of molecule adsorption on active metal surfaces.
报告简介:
Towards our long-term vision of precisely controlling active sites, our group focuses on incorporating catalysts into crystalline nanoporous materials, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). The precise molecularly-defined pores intrinsic to the MOFs provide a new tool to control the catalytic transformations on the catalysts. We have developed methods to combine organometallic catalysts, enzymes, and nanoparticle catalysts with MOFs of precisely tuned pore structures to manipulate the reactions.
