Novel protocol by which cyclodehydrogenative planarization reactions of graphene nanostructures is initiated and carried out regardless of the substrate (Au, TiO2, Ge:H, Si/SiO2 or NaCl) with atomic hydrogen playing the role of a highly efficient catalyst. nature.com/articles/s4146…

I love this reaction: atomic hydrogen as catalyst in cyclodehydrogenation reactions. It sounds counterintuitive but it works! Great collaboration with our friends in Krakow SPMLabJUK , espeem.com and Madrid ESISNA_icmm CiQUS Nature Communications

🚨Now online: 💡Cyclodehydrogenation of molecular nanographene precursors catalyzed by atomic hydrogen 🗞️A new paper at Nature Communications by Jose Ignacio Martinez nature.com/articles/s4146…

Just released our paper in J. Am. Chem. Soc. on how stereochemistry drives surface-induced cyclization into cyclopentaazulene chevron-like graphene nanoribbons, yielding a record-low GNR bandgap. STM & DFT reveal its impact on nanostructure design. Instituto de Ciencia de Materiales Madrid - CSIC pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

Our latest paper in Elsevier Applied Surface Science journal entitled “Influence of the substrate in the on-surface synthesis and air stability of 1D metal-organic oligomers” just released. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

In collaboration with the New York Univ. in Abu Dhabi, Felipe Gándara & Jose Ignacio Martinez from Instituto de Ciencia de Materiales Madrid - CSIC discovers a new light-driven COF actuator bending 100° in 3s via triple energy conversion: light→chemistry→heat→motion. A leap for soft robotics! 🔦⚙️ nature.com/articles/s4146…

A collab between Jose Ignacio Martinez & Dinesh Shetty’s group et al has led to quasi-planar COFs with tailored heteroatoms that enable highly selective gold recovery (3467 mg/g, 92%) from complex e-waste leachates, showing the power of molecular-level design Instituto de Ciencia de Materiales Madrid - CSIC pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

In our recent findings in Materials Horizons, we have tuned hetero atoms within COFs for highly selective recovery of gold from real e-waste mixtures. For more details, please follow pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art… A wonderful effort by Sushil and Mahira. Great collaboration with Jose Ignacio Martinez.

Excited to share our latest study reporting on how moiré patterns in epitaxial Gr on Pt(111) modulate local reactivity toward hydrogenation. Atomically resolved STM+DFT+MC show enhanced H adsorption and stability at the most corrugated regions.
