1D and 2D Conjugated Polymers: What Can We Learn from DFT Calculations and Raman Spectroscopy?
Résumé / Abstract:.
p-conjugated materials have become largely used in a wide rage of applications such as electronics, photonics and spintronics. In all of these applications, the chemical structure of the p-conjugated systems and their intermolecular organization can have pronounced effects on their properties that reflect on the device′s performance.To advance in this research field, deciphering the mechanisms involved on how sensitive the structural and electronic properties are to specific chemical structural changes and molecular ordering is essential.[1] Based on trial-and-error approach, the design of novel materials generally involves an expensive and environmentally unfriendly methodology with computational design offering a green alternative to experimental laboratory research. On the other hand, Raman spectroscopy is a fast and nondestructive characterization tool widely used to evaluate the structural and electronic properties of p-conjugated materials. In this study, we present some of our more recent investigations on 1D and 2D conjugated polymers dealing with the better understanding of their complex structure-properties relationships.[2] To this end, we combine an experimental and theoretical approach that links DFT calculations with Raman spectroscopy. Overall, our findings open the door to monitoring the degree of π-conjugation of 1D and 2D polymers in order to shed light on the complex but necessary challenge of obtaining increasingly complex π-conjugated polymers..

Et un résumé du CV du Pr M. Carmen Ruiz Delgado / And a summary of Pr M. Carmen Ruiz Delgado ‘s resumé:
M. Carmen Ruiz Delgado is Full profesor of Physical Chemistry at the University of Malaga (UMA). She completed her Ph. D. in 2006 at UMA (Spain). Her thesis work, based on the vibrational study of conjugated materials, was recognized with a University prize to best Ph. D. doctoral work conducted at the UMA and from the GENAM group of the Spanish Royal Society of Chemistry (RSEQ). In 2007 she moved to Georgia Tech (Atlanta, USA) and worked with Professor Jean-Luc Bredas, to join the leading international research group studying organic electronics from a computational perspective. She was awarded with the “AACP Postdoctoral Award” of the Georgia Tech and Emory University for excellence during her postdoctoral research. In January 2010 she joined the University of Málaga, where she leads research focused on combining experimental spectroscopic techniques with computational chemistry of organic materials, with the aim of guiding synthetic chemists in the creation of new molecules and materials with more efficient, reliable and environmentally friendly properties and applications. She has an excellent track record of publications (>110 papers). Several publications in the highest impact factor journals in his field including (11 J. Am. Chem. Soc., 4 Chemistry of Materials,, 2 Adv. Funct. Mat…). Her career has been recognized with several prizes. She frequently participates in dissemination activities aiming to make visible the scientific results to the society and/or to support the gender equlity and women´s empowerment, She is currently treasurer of the GENAM group of RSEQ. At the UMA, she has been Adjunct Vice-Rector for Research Staff from 2016 to 2023.
