Reactions are typically driven by heat. However, in recent years, light has also established itself as an energy source, as it allows chemical reactions to be controlled with exceptional precision.

Researchers have used a cutting-edge robotic system capable of synthesizing hundreds of metal complexes to develop a possible antibiotic candidate—offering fresh hope in the global fight against ...

Highly reducing or oxidizing photocatalysts are a fundamental challenge in photochemistry. Only a few transition metal complexes with Earth-abundant metal ions have so far advanced to excited state ...

"This metal complex sets a new standard in photochemistry: it combines a record-breaking excited-state lifetime with simple synthesis," explained Professor Katja Heinze of the JGU Department of ...
