WROCŁAW TECH · FACULTY OF CHEMISTRY
We investigate functional materials through molecular modelling, synthesis and experimental characterization, with research in physical chemistry, photonics and biophotonics.
FROM THE INSTITUTE
Marta Dudek and Marco Deiana co-authored an Angewandte Chemie study on a photoswitchable ligand that regulates DNA G-quadruplexes in living cells.
Read article : Controlling DNA G-quadruplexes with visible lightA JACS study co-authored by Jan K. Zaręba identifies a reversible anion-relay mechanism for polarization switching in a copper-based metal–organic framework.
Read article : How nitrate ions switch polarization in a metal–organic frameworkKrzysztof A. Konieczny co-authored a JACS study on crystal design that preserves diffraction during electron-beam-induced chemical transformations.
Read article : Turning electron-beam damage into a controlled crystal reactionA Nature Communications study co-authored by Błażej Dziuk reports an oxidant-free gold-catalysed route to benzocyclobutenes.

Quantum chemistry, molecular simulations and experiments on light-responsive matter. Research connects biological photophysics, catalytic and intermolecular interactions, molecular crystals, photoresponsive soft materials and the theoretical photochemistry developed in Robert W. Góra’s lab.
Explore the groupSynthesis and optical characterization of molecular and nanoscale materials for photonics and biophotonics. Research covers multiphoton absorption, luminescent nanocrystals, wavelength conversion, biological optical probes and the effects of molecular organization.
