Generate a tailored SOP for Dr. Bob Lemieux. Improve your application with a focused, well-structured draft.
Professor Lemieux's lab bridges the fields of organic synthesis, physical organic chemistry, and condensed matter physics to create new liquid crystal materials used in fast switching ferroelectric electroclinic LCD applications, taking advantage of inherent structure-property relationships. His research has resulted in a better understanding of how chirality (a molecule’s 'handedness') propagates in smectic liquid crystal phases, which has been leveraged to produce ferroelectric LCDs with faster response. Professor Lemieux focuses on the development of new liquid crystal materials formulated for defect-free ferroelectric electroclinic LCD applications. His group comprises chemistry experts with the necessary skills to synthesize new liquid crystal materials, characterize their physical properties, and evaluate their potential as active components in electro-optical photonic devices.
Includes fields like Clinical, Cognitive, Developmental, and Industrial/Organizational Psychology.
