- George Chappell Schatz (* 14. April 1949 in Watertown (City, New York)) ist ein US-amerikanischer Physikochemiker. Schatz studierte an der Clarkson University mit dem Bachelor-Abschluss 1971 und wurde 1975 am Caltech in Chemie promoviert. Als Post-Doktorand war er am Massachusetts Institute of Technology. 1976 wurde er Assistant Professor und 1982 Morrison Professor für Chemie an der Northwestern University. Er befasst sich mit theoretischer Chemie und Quantenchemie (quantenmechanische reaktive Streuung, Potentialenergieflächen, Simulation klassischer Trajektorien, Energietransfer bei Kollisionen), Verbrennungskinetik, Spektroskopien an Oberflächen (zum Beispiel Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy), klassischer Elektrodynamik bis in Nanodimensionen, zum Beispiel nahe rauer Metalloberflächen, und mit optischen Eigenschaften von Nanopartikeln und deren Clustern. Er untersuchte zum Beispiel Gold-Nanopartikel die an DNA oder Peptiden gebunden sind und Bildung und Selbstaufbau dünner Filme. 2005 erhielt er den Peter Debye Award und 2016 den Irving Langmuir Award. Er erhielt 1993 den Max-Planck-Forschungspreis, den Hirschfelder Prize der University of Wisconsin, die Bourke Medal der Faraday Division der Royal Society of Chemistry und 1983 den National Fresenius Award von Phi Lambda Upsilon. Er war Berater des Batelle Columbus Laboratory und des Argonne National Laboratory. 2008 erhielt er den Feynman Prize in Nanotechnology für die Modellierung und Optimierung der Dip Pen Nanolithography Method der Nanofabrikation und seine Erklärung von Plasmon-Effekten in metallischen Nanopunkten. Er ist seit 1993 Herausgeber des Journal of Physical Chemistry. Er ist Fellow der American Physical Society und der American Association for the Advancement of Science sowie Mitglied der American Academy of Arts and Sciences und der National Academy of Sciences. 1980 bis 1982 war er Sloan Research Fellow.

- George Chappell Schatz (born April 14, 1949), the Morrison Professor of Chemistry at Northwestern University, is a theoretical chemist best known for his seminal contributions to the field of reaction dynamics. Born in Watertown, New York, he obtained his B. S. from Clarkson University in 1971 and his Ph.D. from Caltech in 1976 under Aron Kuppermann. Following postdoctoral work at MIT, he joined the Chemistry Department at Northwestern University. Schatz is a member of the Center for Chemistry at the Space-Time Limit. A longtime senior editor of the Journal of Physical Chemistry, he became its editor-in-chief in 2005. The journal previously (1997) having been split in Journal of Physical Chemistry A (molecular physical chemistry, both theoretical and experimental) and Journal of Physical Chemistry B (solid state, soft matter, liquids), Schatz initiated the spin-off of a third journal, Journal of Physical Chemistry C, focusing on nanotechnology and molecular electronics. Schatz is a Fellow of the American Physical Society (1987), and member of the National Academy of Sciences, of the International Academy of Quantum Molecular Science, and many other such bodies. He authored over 900 scientific papers, and co-authored two books with his colleague Mark A. Ratner: Introduction to Quantum Mechanics in Chemistry and Quantum Mechanics in Chemistry. Schatz has won the Ahmed Zewail Prize award of the journal Chemical Physics Letters for "outstanding contributions to the theory and understanding of gas-phase reaction dynamics, plasmonics, and nanostructured materials". The biennial Prize was developed by Elsevier to honor Nobel Laureate Ahmed Zewail, who was a longtime editor of Chemical Physics Letters. Schatz is the 7th winner of this international award. Recently much of Schatz's research has been concerned with nanotechnology and bionanotechnology. (en)
