报告人简介：Professor Rodrique Lescouëzec carried out his PhD at the Universidad de Valen-cia, where he worked on the design of Single-Chain Magnets. He followed by postdoctoral research in Munich and Manchester where he worked on EPR and paramagnetic NMR spectroscopies. He joined Sorbonne Université in 2004. His research focuses on the design of Molecular Switchable Materials, particularly those whose magnetic/electronic properties can be controlled by pressure, light or Temperature. He has published 90 peer-reviewed papers (HF = 37, citations > 4700), led or participated in many research projects, including French ANR projects and international collaborations such as the ANR-JST France-Japan project. He has served as an invited professor at the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay on multiple occasions, supervised numerous doctoral students, postdoctoral researchers, and master's students, and made significant contributions to the field of molecular magnetism.
报告简介：In this seminar, we will explore the fascinating world of molecular magnetic switches -compounds whose electronic state can be controlled by external stimuli such as light, temperature, pressure, electric field. These systems are beginning to find applications in chemical sensing and hold strong potential for development in molecular electronics. Focusing on our own research, I will present our efforts to better understand the switching phenomena and to optimize the performance of these materials. I will also highlight how unexpected results and experimental “failures” have played a central role in shaping our research path, often leading to new ideas and directions. The goal is to illustrate how coordination chemists contribute to the design of functional molecular materials, and to encourage students to embrace the exploratory-and sometimes unpredictable-nature of scientific discovery.
