John Asbury is a Professor in the Department of Chemistry at Pennsylvania State University. His research focuses on ultrafast spectroscopy, particularly the development and application of two-dimensional infrared (2D IR) spectroscopy to study chemical processes in functional organic electronic materials. By using ultrafast infra-red spectroscopy in combination with electrochemical techniques, Asbury aims to elucidate the structure and dynamics of charged defects, investigating their involvement in electron transfer, carrier diffusion, and charge recombination processes in emerging photovoltaic materials. His work explores the influence of dielectric properties on charge transport mechanisms and aims to provide insights into improving organic electronic devices. Asbury has made significant contributions to the understanding of defects in organic materials, examining how these defects affect charge carrier dynamics and device efficiency. His interdisciplinary research includes collaboration with engineering fields and emphasizes analytical, physical, and polymer chemistry.
