Postdoctoral Research Fellowships in Chemistry

安德烈·托克马科夫博士被授予美国国家科学基金会化学博士后研究奖学金。托克马科夫博士在Michael Fayer教授的指导下获得了斯坦福大学的博士学位。托克马科夫博士将在格雷厄姆·弗莱明教授的赞助下继续在芝加哥大学进行研究。他的博士后研究目标是研究水、水溶液和其他复杂液体中的溶剂模式。利用飞秒可见光脉冲，通过5阶和7阶非线性拉曼光谱和线性拉曼诱导克尔效应实验，可以了解液体的低频模式和结构演化。高阶非线性实验的描述，特别是定向运动对相干实验的影响的描述，将在理论上取得进展。这项研究将有助于我们理解凝聚相化学体系的超快光谱的概念和技术。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。

Dr. Andrei Tokmakoff has been awarded an NSF Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Chemistry. Dr. Tokmakoff received his doctoral degree from Stanford University under the supervision of Professor Michael Fayer. Dr. Tokmakoff will continue research at the University of Chicago under the sponsorship of Professor Graham Fleming. His postdoctoral research will target the study of solvent modes in water, aqueous solutions, and other complex liquids. Femtosecond visible pulses will be used to understand low frequency modes and structural evolution of liquids with 5th and 7th order nonlinear Raman spectroscopy and linear Raman-induced Kerr effect experiments. Theoretical advances will be made in the description of high-order nonlinear experiments, particularly in the description of the influence of orientational motion on coherence experiments. The research will contribute to our understanding of the concepts and techniques of ultrafast spectroscopy of condensed phase chemical systems. 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.
