Chemistry

Nitrogen is an interesting material exhibiting molecular and polymer like behavior as well as melt maximum at high temperatures. At very high pressure, nitrogen forms an amorphous phase with a nonmolecular semiconductor characteristics.

Historically, the Bardeen–Cooper–Schrieffer (BCS) theory of superconductivity, was established by the attractive interaction between the electrons when mediated by phonons;

ur development of digital waveform mass spectrometry evolved from our overarching goal to increase the working range of mass spectrometers so that large biomolecules and their complexes can be analyzed in low charge states.

Melamine (C3H6N6) and its derivatives are high-production-volume chemicals that are widely used in the production of ready-to-assemble furniture, disinfectants, laminate floors, kitchenware etc.

Metalloactinyl complexes are of interest in actinide chemistry due to their unique and relatively unexplored transition metal-actinide bonds.

X-ray spectroscopy is a widely used technique at synchrotron radiation sources for analyses of the electronic and structural parameters of materials.

Proteins can be covalently conjugated with small-molecule labels to achieve a variety of functions. For example, proteins can be labelled with drug molecules to target specific cells for disease therapies, or a radioactive or fluorescent label can be used to detect proteins in a Western blot.

Molecular iodine [I2] is one volatile species of iodine that is released in the event of a nuclear accident. The release of radioiodine poses a concern to public health due to potential bioaccumulation of iodine from food and other sources.

The Feller-Peterson-Dixon (FPD) method is a flexible composite approach that can be adapted to determine energetic properties such as ionization potentials (IPs) and electron affinities (EAs), among others.

Greg Brabeck received his PhD from WSU’s Department of Chemistry (AER division) in 2016. He currently works at Excellims in Boston, MA where he designs and supports hyphenated Ion Mobility and Mass Spectrometric devices.

Pharmacologic agents for cancer immunotherapy have traditionally been dominated by macromolecules.
