Professor Greg M. Swain of Michigan State University is supported by the Analytical and Surface Chemistry Program in the Division of Chemistry to study the physical, chemical, electrical, optical and electrochemical properties of optically transparent diamond and diamond-like carbon thin-film electrodes and explore their application in UV/Vis and IR transmission spectroelectrochemical measurements. The electrochemical properties of the electrodes will be tailored through control of their deposition conditions, and characterized by conductivity-probe atomic force microscopy, scanning electrochemical microscopy, and other surface characterization techniques. Transmission spectroelectrochemical methods in the UV/Vis and IR will be used to investigate the electrode reaction mechanism of redox-active neuropharmacological agents, and low frequency IR spectroelectrochemical method will be used for the study of redox-linked metal-ligand modes in metalloproteins and enzymes. Graduate and undergraduate students will be trained in analytical chemistry, electrochemistry, materials science, optical spectroscopy, and spectroelectrochemistry. Students from underrepresented minorities will be involved in this research through the local NOBCChE chapter.

Greg M.密歇根州立大学的Swain得到化学系分析和表面化学项目的支持，研究光学透明金刚石和类金刚石薄膜电极的物理、化学、电学、光学和电化学性质，并探索其在UV/维斯和IR透射光谱电化学测量中的应用。 电极的电化学性质将通过控制其沉积条件来定制，并通过电导探针原子力显微镜、扫描电化学显微镜和其他表面表征技术来表征。 紫外/维斯和红外透射光谱电化学方法将用于研究具有氧化还原活性的神经药物的电极反应机理，低频红外光谱电化学方法将用于研究金属蛋白和酶中氧化还原连接的金属-配体模式。 研究生和本科生将接受分析化学，电化学，材料科学，光谱学和光谱电化学的培训。来自代表性不足的少数民族的学生将通过当地NOBCChE分会参与这项研究。
