The focus of our research is on fundamental issues of structure and dynamics in crystalline, glassy, and liquid silicates and oxides, and on glass-forming liquids in general. Our goal is to relate experimental measurements of atomic-scale processes to macroscopic properties of interest to the earth sciences (including mineralogy, igneous and metamorphic petrology, volcanology and geochemistry), materials sciences, and physical chemistry. Much of what we do lies at the interface between geochemistry and materials science. The major research tool in our group at this time is Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Spectroscopy. We have two fully-equipped labs for most sorts of modern solid-state high and low resolution NMR experiments. An unusual feature of the lab is our capability to do in-situ, high T studies up to about 1500 deg C.
