Abstract:

I will present and discuss results of extensive quasiclassical trajectory studies of cluster molecule reactivity, which plays a central role in nanocatalysis. The effects of cluster size, structure, and temperature, as well as the initial rovibrational state of the molecule and the collision energy will be analyzed. Competing mechanisms of cluster-molecule reactions will be examined and characterized. The presentation will include computer-generated movies of the processes studied.

 

Dr. Julius Jellinek

Julius Jellinek is a Senior Scientist in the Chemical Sciences and Engineering Division of Argonne National Laboratory and a Senior Fellow with the University of Chicago/Argonne Computation Institute. His main interests lie in the broad area of theory,modeling, and simulation of finite systems, in general, and atomic and molecular clusters and nanoparticles, in particular. His work has covered a wide range of properties of these systems, including their structural, thermal, phase change, electronic, magnetic, optical, dielectric, and chemical reactivity features as defined by their size and composition. The emphasis is on metal nanosystems, both homogeneous and alloy, as these are particularly relevant to many technological applications, including catalysis. He is the author of one book and has published over 160 journal articles and reviews.
