Nominator's project description
| Professor Johnson is an experimental physical chemist and molecular spectroscopist of international renown. He has made seminal contributions to the structural characterization of protons, hydroxide ions and excess electrons in water at the molecular level using size-selective spectroscopic measurements. In Germany, methods that he has developed will be combined with an infrared free electron laser, to study strongly bound H-bonded networks and reaction intermediates in biomimetic water splitting. |
