Lonnie Crosby
Ph.D.
Computational Chemistry,
University of Memphis, 2007;M.S. Physical Chemistry, University
of Memphis, 2004;B.S. Chemistry, Arkansas State University, 2001
My interests are mainly in the areas of material science, molecular optics,and chemical kinetics. The research I participated in at Arkansas State University focused on time-resolved spectroscopy of molecules for optical sensing applications. Graduate school at The University of Memphis gave me the opportunity to expand into computational chemistry. Various computational projects included prediction of electron spin resonance hyperfine interactions, chemical kinetics, and the spectroscopy of defects within materials. Exploring the properties of weakly bound molecular clusters is the emphasis of current work at Iowa State University. The properties of interest include reaction kinetics, and spectroscopy.
