Syracuse University's research interests touch on a number of areas of interest to nanoscale organic and inorganic materials scientists.
Key Interest Areasincluding design of radiopharmaceuticals; study of the mechanisms of action of metals and metal ions in bioorganisms; the development of precursors for the chemical vapor deposition of metallic layers for the electronics industry; assembly of nanoparticles for drug delivery and biological imaging; and a variety of single-atom manipulation techniques and the versatile chemistry of main group elements with application in catalysis and the design of f element complexes for luminescence applications. Facilities and ResourcesSyracuse University's facilities include the latest research equipment, including an ultrafast laser laboratory, several high-resolution spectrophotometers and fluorimeters, differential scanning calorimetry, thermo-gravimetric analysis, electrochemical analyzers, HPLC systems, circular dichroism, IR and Raman spectrometers, as well as GC-MS and LC-MS. We also have access to transmission and scanning electron microscopes on campus.
