Transregional Collaborative Research Center TRR 234 – CataLight
CataLight is a transregional collaborative research center, funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG), hosted by Ulm University and the Friedrich Schiller University Jena. CataLight’s project partners are at the Leibniz Institute of Surface Engineering Leipzig, the Helmholtz Institute for Polymers in Energy Applications Jena, the Leibniz Institute of Photonic Technology Jena, the Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz, the Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research Mainz, the University of Vienna, the Carl von Ossietzky University of Oldenburg, and the Argonne National Lab Chicago. CataLight explores the controlled linkage of molecular light-driven catalytic units with hierarchically structured soft matter matrices to convert solar radiation into chemical reactivity.
