Chemistry of Light and Energy

The Chemistry of Light and Energy theme brings together researchers working in areas connected to experimental and theoretical studies involving light and energy transfer.  

 

Our research areas include:

  • photodynamics of light-activated proteins

  • operation of molecular machines

  • light harvesting/electronic energy transfer

  • development of new materials with applications in energy capture/conversion from the sun and next generation LEDs

  • ultrafast excited state dynamics of ions gas-phase and the influence of solvation

  • quantum theories of light and light-matter interactions

  • development of laser techniques for probing reaction dynamics
