معرفی
Arthur HG David is a CNRS researcher at the Institut des sciences chimiques de Rennes, University of Rennes, France, where he has been employed since 2024. His research is centered on mechanically interlocked molecules, nanographenes, chirality, and organic optoelectronic materials.
Education:
- PhD in Chemistry, University of Granada, Spain (2020)
- Master's in Molecular Chemistry, University of Rennes 1, France (2016)
- Bachelor's in Chemistry, University of Rennes 1, France (2014)
His research interests include the synthesis and study of rotaxanes, catenanes, curved polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, and nanographenes, with a strong focus on chiroptical properties and circularly polarized luminescence. He has conducted postdoctoral research at Northwestern University under Prof. J. Fraser Stoddart and at the University of Angers under Dr. Philippe Blanchard and Dr. Antoine Goujon.
His recent publications (2023–2025) span high-impact journals and cover themes such as stimuli-responsive luminescent materials, dynamic covalent synthesis, supramolecular nanostructures, and mechanically interlocked systems. These works highlight interdisciplinary advances in organic materials, photophysics, and molecular design.
