1990's Laureates
Gregory J. Kubas, 1994
Chemistry: For his landmark
discovery of molecular hydrogen complexes of transition
metals and for his pioneering research on their chemical
and physical properties. His research has revolutionized
the way scientists think about how the-chemical bond
in hydrogen and similar chemical bonds interact with
metals. This interaction is the basis of many large-scale
industrial processes; and the ability to store hydrogen
as metal hydrides improves hydrogen's prospects for
use as an energy source.
