\"\"<\/td>\n\n

Dr. Clemens Burda<\/strong><\/p>\n

PhD, University Basel | Basel, Switzerland
\nPost-Doc, Georgia Institute of Technology | Atlanta, Georgia<\/p>\n

Professor Burda’s research interests include femtosecond time-resolved spectroscopy and time-resolved imaging of molecules, semiconductor and metallic nanomaterials, as well as renewable energy materials.<\/p>\n

One major research pursuit in the Burda group\u00a0is the development of imaging modalities to identify early-stage diseases, light-driven therapies, and their photothermal management.\u00a0A second major thrust is\u00a0the studies of nanomaterials for energy harvesting, conversion, and storage.\u00a0His work has been funded by NSF, NIH, DOE, NASA, and industry.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
