Postdoctoral Research Fellowships in Chemistry

9403361 Higgins博士被授予美国国家科学基金会化学博士后研究奖学金。他在威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校的Robert Corn教授的指导下获得博士学位。希金斯博士将在保罗·芭芭拉教授的赞助下继续在明尼苏达大学进行研究。他的博士后研究将结合使用时间分辨光谱方法和近场扫描光学显微镜来研究半导体电极表面不同微观域的影响。长期而言，他将应用近场扫描光学显微镜对n掺杂多晶二氧化钛表面微观晶域的光电反应性进行原位研究。化学博士后研究奖学金项目是一项重要的基础设施项目，旨在拓宽新博士的知识和经验，吸引他们从事当代化学研究和教学中有意义的职业。＊＊＊

9403361 Higgins Dr. Daniel A. Higgins has been awarded an NSF Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Chemistry. Dr. Higgins received his doctoral degree from the University of Wisconsin/Madison under the supervision of Professor Robert Corn. Dr. Higgins will continue research at the University of Minnesota under the sponsorship of Professor Paul Barbara. His postdoctoral research will couple the use of time-resolved spectroscopic methods with near-field scanning optical microscopy to investigate the effects of different microscopic domains present on semiconductor electrode surfaces. Longer term, he will apply near-field scanning optical microscopy to the in-situ study of the photo-electrochemical reactivity of microscopic crystalline domains on the surface of n-doped polycrystalline titanium dioxide. 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. ***
