Chiral Nanocluster Materials

Objective

CHIRALNANOMAT is a multi-disciplinary DN project between 7 laboratories and 6 companies in 8 European countries. The network
merges physics, chemistry, and biosciences into a unique combination of advanced synthesis and characterization of chiral metal
nanoclusters, as well as their applications in catalysis and biosensing. CHIRALNANOMAT's innovative approach overcomes the current
state-of-the-art through: (A) production of chiral atomically precise metal nanoclusters and their assemblies, (B) extensive
characterization of their chiral properties, structure and optical properties; both in solution phase and on solid supports, (C) catalytic
and biomedical applications followed by the prototyping of the most promising enantioselective catalysts and bioprobes, and (D)
development of new computational tools to study chiroptical, catalytic properties and interface of nanomaterials and biomolecules
and integration of computational and experimental studies to understand their functionalities.
CHIRALNANOMAT will train 13 Doctoral Candidates who will become experts in chiral nanomaterials and will be able to answer to the
future needs of academic and industrial sectors in Europe. By acquiring skills in chemical synthesis, spectroscopic methods, nonlinear
surface optics, surface science imaging and scanning probes, bio-functionalization, bio-imaging, and computational electronic
structure and molecular dynamics methods as well as machine learning for modeling, and being exposed to an intersectoral
environment (through secondments and network-wide training) they will be competitive in future job markets in critical areas of
nanotechnology having impact, among others, on synthesis for production of drugs and fine chemicals and novel biotechnology enabled
personalized nanomedicine.

Fields of science (EuroSciVoc)

CORDIS classifies projects with EuroSciVoc, a multilingual taxonomy of fields of science, through a semi-automatic process based on NLP techniques. See: The European Science Vocabulary.
This project's classification has been validated by the project's team.

Keywords

Project’s keywords as indicated by the project coordinator. Not to be confused with the EuroSciVoc taxonomy (Fields of science)

Programme(s)

Multi-annual funding programmes that define the EU’s priorities for research and innovation.

Topic(s)

Calls for proposals are divided into topics. A topic defines a specific subject or area for which applicants can submit proposals. The description of a topic comprises its specific scope and the expected impact of the funded project.

Funding Scheme

Funding scheme (or “Type of Action”) inside a programme with common features. It specifies: the scope of what is funded; the reimbursement rate; specific evaluation criteria to qualify for funding; and the use of simplified forms of costs like lump sums.
