Dr. Sarah H. Tolbert has been awarded an NSF Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Chemistry. Dr. Tolbert received the doctoral degree from the University of California at Berkeley under the supervision of Professor A. Paul Alivisatos. Dr. Tolbert will continue research at the University of California at Santa Barbara under the sponsorship of Professor Galen Stucky. The postdoctoral research will focus on the study of iron oxide mesoporous materials. The systems consist of surfactant/inorganic composites that display long range periodic order reminiscent of liquid crystals. The synthesis and characterization of mesopores is accomplished through the use of redox chemistry with iron oxide as the model inorganic. The materials produced are characterized by Moessbauer spectroscopy as well as by examination of magnetic properties. The work leads toward the overall goal of understanding and predicting the observable states of solids. The Postdoctoral Research Fellowships in Chemistry Program is viewed as an important infrastructural program designed to broaden the knowledge and experience of new Ph. D.s and attract them into meaningful careers in contemporary chemical research and teaching.

萨拉·H·托尔伯特博士被授予美国国家科学基金会化学博士后研究奖学金。托尔伯特博士在A.Paul Alivisatos教授的指导下获得了加州大学伯克利分校的博士学位。托尔伯特博士将在加伦·斯塔基教授的赞助下继续在加州大学圣巴巴拉分校进行研究。博士后研究将集中在氧化铁介孔材料的研究上。该体系由表面活性剂/无机复合材料组成，表现出让人想起液晶的长程周期有序。以氧化铁为模型无机材料，通过氧化还原化学的方法完成了介孔材料的合成和表征。对所制备的材料进行了穆斯堡尔谱和磁学性质的测试。这项工作通向理解和预测固体的可观察状态的总体目标。化学博士后研究奖学金计划被视为一个重要的基础计划，旨在拓宽新博士的知识和经验，并吸引他们在当代化学研究和教学中从事有意义的职业。
