Prix 2008 de la Fondation scientifique franco-taiwanaise Le Prix 2008 de la Fondation scientifique franco-taiwanaise, placée sous í égide de í Académie des sciences et financée par le Conseil taiwanais des sciences (NSC), a été décerné conjointement aux équipes menées par Mme Marie-Madelaine ROHMER et M. Marc BENARD, Directeurs de recherches CNRS à í Institut de chimie de í Université Louis Pasteur Strasbourg I, et par le Professeur PENG Shie-Ming, Membre de í Academia Sinica et chercheur au Département de Chimie de í Université nationale de Taiwan. Les lauréats ont été récompensés pour leurs travaux conjoints dans le domaine de la synthése, de la caractérisation et de la modélisation de complexes organométalliques à la base de << fils nanométriques >>. Le jury a tout à la fois noté la grande qualité des recherches sur le plan scientifique et la réalité de la coopération, formalisée dés 2004 par un projet de recherche conjoint dans le cadre de í accord CNRS/NSC et ayant donné lieu à des échanges de chercheurs, deux théses de doctorat en cotutelle et un atelier conjoint. La remise de ce prix, le dixiéme depuis la création de la Fondation scientifique franco-taiwanaise aura lieu sous la coupole de í Institut de France le 25 novembre 2008. En outre, les lauréats seront invités à une cérémonie organisée à Paris conjointement par í Académie des Sciences et le Bureau de représentation de Taipei à Paris. Pour rappel, le Prix de la Fondation scientifique franco-taiwanaise, créé en 1999, est destiné à récompenser annuellement une équipe formée de chercheurs français et taiwanais qui ont contribué à la promotion de la coopération scientifique franco-taiwanaise depuis plusieurs années. Chaque année un appel à propositions est ouvert , dont í Institut français de Taipei se fait í écho.

Latestest Results of Our Research (2007-5-7)

The Director of CNST, Professor Shie-Ming Peng in chemistry department, is renowned for his unique extended metal-atom chains supported by four helically wrapped ligands, making organometallic nanomaterials. Crystallographic characterization of undecanickel complex has recently been achieved. Preliminary MALDI-MS spectra even show the feasibility of a string containing 17 nickel ions. Such multinuclear nano-strings make up a perfect platform for the fundamental study of metal-metal interactions beyond dinuclear complexes... Download PDF report file...
