Terry Ding B.S. in Physical Chemistry from Nanjing University M.S. in Computational Chemistry from Tulane University Ph.D. in Physical Chemistry from University of Wisconsin-Madison My research is focused on the development of surface null angle polarization spectroscopy (SNAPS). SNAPS is a great tool that can monitor intrinsic orientational dynamics of liquids at interfaces, which combines the surface selectivity of vibrational sum frequency spectroscopy and temporal resolution of optical Kerr effects spectroscopy. We are working together with Rob Walker’s group in the same department to build the spectrometer, and are also collaborating with theory groups- Bruce Berne’s group in Columbia and John Week’s group in the same department- to understand the forces that dictate the dynamics. |
