The primary aim of this research is to investigate the structural properties of fluid surfaces (such as water, methanol, and carbon tetrachloride and their vapors) on length scales varying from several angstroms to microns. In addition, investigation will focus on Langmuir monolayers, thermotropic liquid crystals, and lytropic liquid crystals. The techniques of x-ray reflectivity and diffraction will be used in this work because no alternative technique is available to acquire this information. Graduate students will conduct their work at the Harvard MRL facility and the Brookhaven National Laboratory.

这项研究的主要目的是研究流体表面（例如水、甲醇和四氯化碳及其蒸气）在几埃到微米的长度尺度上的结构特性。 此外，研究将集中在朗缪尔单分子层、热致液晶和溶致液晶上。 这项工作将使用 X 射线反射和衍射技术，因为没有替代技术可用于获取此信息。 研究生将在哈佛 MRL 设施和布鲁克海文国家实验室进行工作。
