SUMMARY:Single-Molecule Spectroscopy with Catalysts\, Conductive Polymers\
 , and Optical Microresonators - Professor Randall Goldsmith\, University o

DESCRIPTION:Measurements on individual molecules have revolutionized how c
 hemists can perceive molecular properties and dynamics\, yet single-molecu
 le techniques can only be applied with considerable experimental constrain
 ts.  The Goldsmith group develops new tools through chemical synthesis\, m
 icro and nanophotonics\, and microfluidics that allow single-molecule tech
 niques to be applied in previously inaccessible scenarios and enable new m
 easurements.  I will discuss recent measurements on the initiation of indi
 vidual organometallic catalysts\, observation of single-molecule binding d
 ynamics at millimolar concentrations\, detecting the heat dissipated from 
 molecules using optical microresonators\, hybrid photonic-plasmonic system
 s\, and spectroscopy on individual conductive polymer molecules.
