Students and
Post-Doctoral Scientists:
Jack Tinkel, Neil Wotherspoon, Jose Burgos, Martin
Pope, Sidney Fox, Frank Vogel, Ronald Selsby
Jack Tinkel
. Jack Tinkel , an accomplished and versatile laboratory technician
Neil
Wotherspoon
. Associate Professor Wotherspoon is a member of the faculty of the
New York City College of Technology.
He has collaborated with me in making measurements of small effects with
high precision.
Jose
Burgos
Dr. Burgos is Assistant Professor in the Department of Radiology
in the Mt. Sinai School of Medicine.
Dr. Burgos was my technical assistant in the 1970’s; he carried
out most of the experiments involving the use of the Millikan-Pope
Chamber to measure the ionization energies of organic compounds.
He was also a participant in the experiments involving exciton
fission and exciton-exciton fusion to produce photoemission.
Sidney
Fox
Dr. Fox did his doctoral thesis with me.
His thesis provided the correct explanation for the first time of the effect of a magnetic field on the
interaction of triplet excitons with trapped charge.
Frank
Vogel
Dr. Vogel’s doctoral work with Professor Geacintov, with which
I was also involved, dealt with the seminal discovery of singlet exciton
fission into two triplet excitons in tetracene.
He is now a medical doctor with a specialization in Radiology.
Ronald
Selsby
Prof. Selsby has been a member of the Physics Department of the
University of Puerto Rico for about twenty years and specializes in
quantum mechanical calculations. He
was a post-doctoral scientist in my laboratory in the 1970’s and made
important contributions to the simplification of the calculations of the
equations of 1934 and 1938 derived by Onsager to
account for geminate recombination.
He was also a pioneer in the use of computer simulations of
exciton hopping on the crystal lattice with reflection sites.
