Staff Scientist at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory
San Francisco Bay Area
My present research is centered around the ALS Infrared Beamlines. Together with many collaborators, we perferm a wide variety of research using this facility. Topics include Condensed Matter Physics, Cellular Biology, Environmental Science, Bioremediation, Forensic Studies, Chemistry, and Materials Science. My earlier research topics included fullerene materials, high-temperature superconductors, giant magnetoresistance oxides, and spin-Peierls compounds. Recent research includes Coherent Terahertz Synchrotron Radiation, and a novel class of materials called metamaterials.
