To be able to exploit the advantages of elements and their molecular compounds in a targeted manner, chemists have to develop a fundamental understanding of their properties. In the case of the element bismuth, a team from the Max Planck Institut für Kohlenforschung has now taken an important step.
Chemists at the institute do not always work in the lab, sometimes mainly on the computer - like Xin Gui from the Department of Molecular Theory and Spectroscopy.
The Max-Planck-Institut für Kohlenforschung is delighted about the great response to the work of its scientists - for example Prof. Frank Neese, Director of the Department of Molecular Theory and Spectroscopy.
