In this award, supported by the Experimental Physical Chemistry Program of the Chemistry Division, Prof. Christopher Bardeen of the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign will conduct research on energy transport (exciton diffusion) in amorphous and polycrystalline conjugated organic solids. The dynamics of transport will be studied using a variety of ultrafast laser techniques. The ultimate goal of this work is to develop a unified picture of the mechanisms that govern energy transport in these materials. Besides the applications of the present work towards developing better practical organic electronic materials, the proposed research will help to train undergraduate and graduate students in an area that has promise of becoming an important area of chemical research. In addition, Prof. Bardeen will implement an outreach program for beginning chemistry students, to teach them about the research that is being carried out, in the context of solar cells and alternative energy production. Prof. Bardeen will make the materials developed as a part of this outreach effort freely available on a website.

在该奖项中，由化学部实验物理化学计划支持，伊利诺伊大学厄巴纳-香槟分校的Christopher Barnard教授将进行非晶和多晶共轭有机固体中能量传输（激子扩散）的研究。 将使用各种超快激光技术研究运输的动力学。 这项工作的最终目标是开发一个统一的图片的机制，管理这些材料中的能量传输。 除了应用目前的工作开发更好的实用有机电子材料，拟议的研究将有助于培养本科生和研究生在一个领域，有希望成为化学研究的一个重要领域。 此外，Barthel教授还将为刚开始学习化学的学生实施一项外展计划，向他们介绍正在进行的太阳能电池和替代能源生产方面的研究。 Barnard教授将在一个网站上免费提供作为这一外联工作一部分而编写的材料。
