Short history
The Laboratory of Quantum Chemistry was founded in 1964 at the initiative of acad. Isaac Bersuker, the world-renowned scientist who directed this scientific group for 29 years (1964-1993).
In 1978 acad. Isaac Bersuker has discovered the „Phenomenon of tunneling splitting of the energy levels of polyatomic systems in degenerate electronic states”. The discovery has been registered in 1978 with No 202 in the State Register of the USSR, being one of the two scientific discoveries ever realized in Republic of Moldova.
In 2006, the laboratory was renamed in the Laboratory of Quantum Chemistry and Chemical Kinetics and later, in 2013, the laboratory was enlarged by the integration of the Laboratory of Magnetic Resonance and Laser Spectroscopy headed by corresponding member Ion Geru, hence the name of the laboratory was replaced by the Laboratory of Quantum Chemistry, Chemical Kinetics and Magnetic Resonance. In 2016 the name of the laboratory became Quantum Chemistry, Catalysis and Physical Methods. Since 2020 laboratory is renamed in Physical and Quantum Chemistry.
- Quantum chemical calculations of geometry, electronic structure and properties of molecular sistems by ab initio and DFT method;
- Development of the theory of vibronic interactions. Pseudo Jahn-Teller Effect (PJTE) in control and rationalization of chemical transformations. Vibronic activation of small molecules by coordination;
- Theoretical and experimental studies of the mechanisms of chemical reactions. Study of the „structure-activity” and „structure-properties” relationships;
- Synthesis of colloidal quantum dots II-VI and study of their properties by methods of optical spectroscopy and magnetic resonance. Processes of self-organization of II-VI colloidal quantum dots in organic solvents;
- Theoretical interpretation of anomalous magnetic properties of trihomonuclear clusters with Kramers’ degeneration of energy levels based on the time- reversal symmetry;
- Application of the time-reversal symmetry for developing of synthesis methods for binuclear coordination compounds with controlled magnetic properties;
- Production of nano-structured catalysts based on TiO2 and doping of their surface with noble metals with the chemical-catalytic methods in order to enlarge their applications in photocatalytic systems, specifically, for the persistent organic pollutants decomposition in water compartments;
- Spectroscopy and molecular dynamics simulations of the conformation of biological macromolecules.
