Research Facilities
|
 The Chemistry Department is housed in an air-conditioned building, sharing
space with the Departments of Biology and Molecular Biology &
Biochemistry. Major items of equipment include the following: Hewlett-Packard GC
(5890) mass spectrometer; two Perkin-Elmer M1600 FTIR; a Fluoromax-2
spectrofluorimeter; stop-flow reactions kinetics system; picosecond CW mode
locked Nd:YAG laser with cavity-dumped dye laser;
JASCO J810 spectropolarimeter equipped with a
Peltier temperature controller, a Beckman DU650 spectrophotometer equipped with
a Peltier temperature controller; Johnson-Matthey magnetic
susceptibility balance; a variety of gas and liquid chromatographs; Perkin-Elmer LS-50
spectrofluorimeter; Hitachi F2000 spectrofluorimeter; three Hitachi U-2000 UV/VIS;
three HP diode array UV/VIS; a Perkin-Elmer 241 polarimeter; Hewlett-Packard
5972 GC mass spectrometer; Photon Technologies LS-100 luminescence lifetime
apparatus; Jobin Yvon 1500 high resolution optical spectrometer; two
high-throughput molecular jet machines; pulsed-jet Fabry-Perot Fourier transform
microwave spectrometer; Storm R40 Imagequant gel and blot analysis system. The
NMR facilities consist of a Varian Gemini two-channel, broadband Mercury Vx with gradients,
a two channel Unity Plus 400 with gradients and a three-channel Unity Inova 500 with gradients. The Chemistry
Department depends heavily on computers. Among other systems, the department has
a SUN IPX workstation, a SUN ultraspark workstation, IBM RISK6000 3CT
workstation, Silicon Graphics Octane2 workstation, a Silicon Graphics Indigo 2 10000 workstation, and two IBM RD6000
workstation. Ethernet connects all department computers to the University
computer and to the Internet. |
