Detailed Course Content

• Organic nanostructures
  

  Coupling C-C reactions through organometalic strategies: Gilman, Suzuki, Stille, Hech, ecc. New double bond formation through alkene metathesis (ROMP, CM, RCM, ecc.). Top-down and bottom-up approach for the nanodevice and nanomachines construction. Light-matter interaction. Molecular electronic and photonic: advantages in the use of small organic molecules instead of inorganic clusters. P and n organic semiconductors.
