WelcomeRoger M. Leblanc

 

 

Our research group aims at understanding the surface chemistry, spectroscopic and microscopic investigation of organic and biological supramolecular complexes. The chemistry of monolayers of supramolecular complexes is of paramount importance on account of many potential applications in diverse fields such as manufacture of new polymers, bio- and chemisensors, protective surface coatings, conductive films, optoelectronic devices, etc.

 

Specifically we are focusing on:

  • 2D combinatorial chemistry
  • Semiconductor nanocrystals
  • Molecular recognition
  • Optical sensors for the detection of analytes of biological and environmental significance
  • Photo-cross-linking
  • Peptide aggregation regarding Amyloidogenesis
