Photophysics

The main topic of the group is related to the study of the mechanism and dynamics of photoinitiated processes in molecules and loosely coupled molecular complexes, including Van der Waals complexes of molecular oxygen X-O2, as well as collisional X-O2 complexes in the gas phase and "contact" X-O2 complexes in a condensed medium. Supramolecular electron-excited states of Van der Waals oxygen X-O2 complexes are also studied using quantum chemistry methods, which determine the influence of the molecular environment on the photophysics and photochemistry of oxygen in the gas phase and condensed media.

A group of luminescent metal complexes for optoelectronics. The group's research interests include the design and synthesis of luminescent transition metal complexes, both mono— and polynuclear, and the subsequent assembly of highly organized supramolecular systems from them.
