Our group studies the ultrafast dynamics of excited states in nature-inspired molecules using gas-phase time resolved ion yield and velocity map ion imaging spectroscopies along with solution-phase transient electronic and vibrational absorption spectroscopies.

Congratulations to Dave on successfully defending his PhD thesis. Well deserved!!
07.02.2013 - Chem. Sci. Publication for Team Stavros
In collaboration with Prof. Mike Ashfold's group (Chemistry, Bristol) and Prof. Martin Paterson (Chemistry, Heriot-Watt), Team Stavros have recently published work on the photodissociation dynamics of a model system, Thioanisole. This work highlights the importance of both purely quantum mechanical phenomena, such as tunnelling, and how dynamics can be controlled with specific vibrational motions in σ* mediated photochemistry. Congratulations all involved!
