My research focuses on developing an understanding of the excited state dynamics of a range of molecules. Excited state nature is a critical factor in the efficacy of several applications including solar cells, organic light emitting diodes and photocatalysts. I use a range of spectroscopic techniques in concert with calculations to investigate how changes to a molecular structure affects its excited state lifetime, energy and location.<\/p>\n

Resonance Raman spectroscopy aids in the characterization of electronic transitions and thus the nature of the initially populated excited state. When an excitation wavelength coincident with an electronic absorbance is used an enhancement is observed of specific vibrational bands that mimic the change in electron density that occurs for that transition. Several emission measurements allow for the relaxed excited state properties to be described. Transient techniques (absorption, emission and Raman) provide further insight into how the excited states of a molecule behave. These experimental techniques help corroborate predictions made by density functional theory calculations.<\/p>\n
