Photophysics of Clusters Containing Metal Chromophores

该职业晋升奖将使Marjatta Lyyra博士能够在集群研究中建立和发展她的职业生涯。她将建造一个能够进行气相团簇工作的飞行时间质谱设备。她将使用该设备研究束缚光谱，光解动力学和碰撞能量转移。氢簇离子体系将在前期工作中进行研究。随后，富勒烯作为金属离子的寄主将被研究。该奖项将使富有成果的科学家能够建造科学设备，用于测量能够更好地理解化学反应的性质。她将研究的系统对于开发具有重要工业意义的电学和催化性能的新型材料非常重要。

This career Advancement Award will enable Dr. Marjatta Lyyra to establish and develop her career in cluster research. She will construct a time of flight mass spectrometry facility capable of gas phase cluster work. She will use the equipment to study bound-bound spectroscopy, the dynamics of photodissociation, and collisional energy transfer. Hydrogen cluster ion systems will be studied in the initial work. Subsequently fullerenenes which are hosts for metal ions will be investigated. %%% This award will enable a productive scientist to build scientific equipment which can measure properties that will lead to a better understanding of chemical reactions. The systems she will study are important to the development of new kinds of materials which could have electrical and catalytic properties of industrial importance.
