L’équipe Chimie Théorique Inorganique (CTI) est spécialisée dans l’étude de la structure électronique de systèmes inorganiques, moléculaires et de l’état solide, des domaines qui touchent à la chimie fine et à la science des matériaux. Au sein de l’Institut des Sciences Chimiques de Rennes – UMR 6226, l’équipe regroupe des enseignants-chercheurs de l’ENSCR et de l’Université de Rennes 1 ainsi que des chercheurs CNRS.

Ses activités concernent principalement l’étude des relations entre compte électronique, structure moléculaire et propriétés physico-chimiques, au moyen d’outils de chimie quantique. Ses chercheurs s’intéressent notamment à la rationalisation de la liaison dans des architectures complexes (clusters de métaux de transition, verres non conventionnels). L’équipe étudie divers matériaux moléculaires multifonctionnels (luminescence, magnétisme, propriétés redox) ainsi que des composés inorganiques de l’état solide d’intérêt pour l’optique ou l’énergie.

Activités/thématiques

Les travaux de recherche développés à l’ENSCR au sein de l’équipe CTI portent sur :

  • L’étude de la structure de verres de chalcogénures
  • La modélisation des propriétés de transport de composés thermoélectriques
  • L’étude de la liaison et des propriétés physiques de composés de l’état solide (clusters de métaux de transition, borures & nitrures de métaux de transition, vanadophosphates…)

Ceci se fait pour une grande part en forte synergie avec des équipes rennaises (en particulier les équipes CSM et V&C) et au travers de collaborations formalisées avec des groupes de chimie théorique ou expérimentale français et étrangers (britanniques, allemands, russes, japonais…).
