Forschung
Research interests of the Kivala group are in the area of functional π-electron systems and materials science creating new types of molecules that can assemble into functional devices.
The emphasis is on organic synthesis allowing the freedom of design novel molecular architectures with tailored properties.
In this research, molecular networks as models for heteroatom-doped graphene, discotic liquid crystals, and charge-transfer systems will be constructed by taking the advantage of principles of covalent as well as supramolecular chemistry.
If you are interested, please stop by in our lab or contact Milan Kivala to find out about possible research opportunities.
