COOPCAT: DEVELOPING THEORETICAL TOOLS AND CONCEPTS TO UNDERSTAND COOPERATIVE EFFECTS IN CATALYSIS, Sonata Bis 8 Project No. UMO- 2018/30/E/ST4/00004, 68/2021
Project leader
dr hab. Adam Kubas
Description
The proposed project focuses on development of theoretical tools and concepts to be used in the growing field of cooperative catalysis. Successful candidate will develop an analytical model that provides embedding potential in quantum-chemical calculations to describe chemical transformations at metallic surfaces.
From our experience the background in physics would be appropriate. However, applicants with other backgrounds will be also considered based on the possible input to the project (e.g. chemists).
