The high heteroatom content is associated with well-defined shape/folding, which in turn enables emergent functions like catalysis and signaling. Inspired by this biological paradigm, we seek to develop new approaches to access abiotic nitrogen-rich polymer backbones with high precision. Toward this end, we are exploring metathesis of nitrogen-containing functional groups like carbodiimides and diazenes, which represent fundamental challenges in inorganic and organometallic chemistry. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ce72ba254ad9b0001f7c015/259c8a2f-73c9-494c-ab1e-52654e6022e3/%5Bremoval.ai%5D_1f684534-b756-45b2-a8a9-2661211ea73f-backbone-editing-vs-c-h.png Research - Editing of polymer backbones Polymer modification is one of the pillars of polymer science whose strategic significance stems from its divergence: from one scaffold, one could access vast new spaces of structures and properties. In this realm, the focus has by and large been on the side-chains and end-groups of polymers, whilst their backbones have received considerably less attention. Yet, the ability to precisely edit the backbone of a polymer could fundamentally transform its identity and associated properties, much like editing a sentence can radically change its meaning. Hence, our group is developing a broad scope of backbone editing methods as well as strategies to control their site-selectivity. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ce72ba254ad9b0001f7c015/f1c8b2c7-ade9-46a4-bfcc-d8b44c766aca/Entanglements+figure.png Research - Templated entanglements in polymer networks Trapped entanglements—topological crosslinks among polymer chains—are in many ways the dark matter of polymer networks: believed to be critical for holding a material together under applied load, they are challenging to detect directly and are known largely by their effects on the surrounding matter. We are exploring supramolecular chemistry as a central strategy to systematically vary the number density and topology of entanglements to, ultimately, understand how the local entanglement topology manifests itself in the mechanical properties of materials at the macroscopic scale. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ce72ba254ad9b0001f7c015/ef6714fc-7411-4953-991d-6d61f2ebda3c/Conjugated+polymers.png Research - Synthesis and assembly of conjugated polymers Nanophotonics has game-changing potential for data processing and sensing applications. State of the art in this field is embodied by inorganic—primarily doped silicon—nanomaterials, whose utilization is limited by cost and scalability of their vacuum-based manufacture and processing. To address these limitations, we are developing conjugated polymer analogues which could be readily integrated into light-weight “smart” textiles, artificial skin of robotics, and sensors. En route to these goals, our research build fundamental knowledge surrounding both the synthesis and self-assembly of conjugated nanomaterials, which will serve as foundation for long-term advances in polymer nanotechnology. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ce72ba254ad9b0001f7c015/1715795897118-NE6CK0B6BVDCVGNJMEZW/%5Bremoval.ai%5D_1f684534-b756-45b2-a8a9-2661211ea73f-backbone-editing-vs-c-h.png Research https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ce72ba254ad9b0001f7c015/1715795897158-W7NQ89BAGO3051VHUNE8/Conjugated+polymers.png Research https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ce72ba254ad9b0001f7c015/1715795897786-V6QAGLSK65FGI8MPJAWQ/Entanglements+figure.png Research https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ce72ba254ad9b0001f7c015/1715795897815-V1YWGEAUZF393JPYXQAZ/Perspective_MechFigure_prev_ui.png Research https://www.zhukogroup.com/contact-us daily 0.75 2022-07-05 https://www.zhukogroup.com/teaching daily 0.75 2026-01-15 https://www.zhukogroup.com/outreach daily 0.75 2024-06-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ce72ba254ad9b0001f7c015/70489bde-b0fa-4e33-86e0-6c15f96119ed/thumbnail_processed-12269EE0-7AD0-456C-8CF6-DC6CF0788D92.jpg Outreach - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ce72ba254ad9b0001f7c015/6099a220-585e-4a2c-8a65-1493c0a54ba0/RachelOutreach.jpg Outreach - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ce72ba254ad9b0001f7c015/71099203-f9eb-4f7a-a77f-cc6fc2e508e2/image-asset.jpg Outreach https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ce72ba254ad9b0001f7c015/f3872175-7f3f-4ff2-8f57-92a59a0cd9f7/IMG_6394.jpg Outreach - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ce72ba254ad9b0001f7c015/ff70bbe0-05f8-40fc-8bb3-3ed338880560/PXL_20210514_134417521.jpg Outreach - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ce72ba254ad9b0001f7c015/7ba16405-2802-41c5-ac1c-e07682b6bc15/Lakewood+outreach+pic+1.jpg Outreach - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ce72ba254ad9b0001f7c015/a3c7b35d-3be2-4157-a583-e52710245512/Lakewood+outreach+pic+2.jpg Outreach - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ce72ba254ad9b0001f7c015/94659be5-5063-4867-974f-8062188e1f2b/Rachael+hilary+outreach+pic+1.jpg Outreach - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
