Description:About the Seminar:\n\nThis talk will cover research being condu
 cted in the Schimpf Lab\, which focuses on solution-phase syntheses of ino
 rganic solid-state materials. The talk will contain two parts: colloidal s
 emiconductor nanocrystals and cluster-based coordination assemblies. In th
 e first part\, I will discuss the use of colloidal synthesis to access met
 astable phases of transition metal dichalcogenide nanocrystals. Specifical
 ly\, coordinating ligands can be used to modulate precursor reactivity\, a
 llowing the synthesis of metastable phases and unique heterostructures. In
  the second part of the talk\, I will present the use of polyoxometalates 
 as building-blocks for all-inorganic coordination networks. Assembly of th
 ese anionic clusters with transition-metal or lanthanide cations is used t
 o synthesize new metal oxide frameworks with widely tunable compositions a
 nd architectures. Factors directing the framework assembly as well as the 
 role of cluster and cation building-blocks in dictating framework properti
 es will be discussed. 4:00 pm
