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
