Synthesis strategies towards new heterometallic and functionalized MOFs Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are porous coordination tri-dimensional assemblies with potential use for many applications, and especially in catalysis, gas storage and adsorption from solution. This thesis mainly...

Phosphonate-containing Polymers as Precursors of Solid Polymer Electrolytes for Lithium Metal Batteries Batteries are recognized as one of the most important energy storage systems due to their high energy density. As one of the most promising next-generation high energy density storage...

The cosmic origin of biomolecular chirality ‘How did life choose its handedness?’ Just like our hands mirror each other, but cannot be superimposed on each other, amino acids and sugars exist in left- and right-handed forms. Even if there appears to be no biochemical reason to favor one...

First-principles quantum transport in 2D materials for nanoelectronics "Over the past decades, continued improvement in transistors density, performance and energy efficiency have been sustained by technological innovations. This exponential development predicted by Moore in the 60s...
