Photodissociation and non-thermal chemistry

We develop novel translational spectroscopic methods study dissociation dynamics of complex ions.

GibbardGang

Photo-dynamics of excited states in anions

We probe the dynamics of photoexcited anions with a focus on bio-chromophores, non-valence electronic states, and polyanions

Electrons and molecules at the air/water interface

Dynamics at the air/water interface are probed using second-harmonic/sum-frequency generation spectroscopy

VerletNet

Dynamics of electron-molecule reactions

We develop optical methods to study the chemical physics underpinning electron driven chemistry
