SUMMARY:Completing Your Annual Report in Digital Measures
DESCRIPTION:Join us for this hands-on session to help you document your academic career using Digital Measures.  This training will focus on the most effective ways to input details regarding your accomplishments in order to produce a comprehensive annual report\, used each year to determine your salary merit increases. The information in Digital Measures is secure and preserved for future use in applying for tenure and promotion. \nRegister for this eventPresented By:Tia PalsoleUTSA Digital Measures AdministratorTia is a Project Coordinator with the Office of the Vice Provost for Institutional Effectiveness. She earned her M.F.A. from The University of Texas at El Paso. Tia serves as the UTSA DM administrator\, trains people new to the system\, liaises with the DM corporate team\, and provides faculty support for DM throughout the year. She is knowledgeable about using DM for preserving and reporting career data\, including faculty vitae and annual reports.

SUMMARY:Academy of Distinguished Researchers Guest Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Translating the Message in Spectroscopic Probes of Conjugated Molecular Materials \nSince before the award of the Nobel Prize\, 17 years ago\, to Alan J. Heeger\, Alan G. MacDiarmid and Hideki Shirakawa for the discovery of conducting polymers\, their has been a steady increase in investigations of related electronically conjugated materials for use in solar photovoltaic cells\, organic light emitting diodes\, and organic material transistors. While the challenges in developing organic LEDs have been overcome and these materials now play an increasing role in commercial products\, the progress in the other arenas\, using semiconducting polymers\, has been steady but slower. A major reason is a fundamental lack of knowledge about the nanoscale organizational structure underlying variations in electro-optical behavior in these typically amorphous materials. Hence\, in contrast to familiar silicon-based technology\, there is a dearth of principles needed to drive the bottom-up design of new molecular material building blocks. In the laboratory\, scientists most readily probe materials by its response to light\, i.e.\, spectroscopically. The challenge then is to interpret the observations in physical and structural terms. Computational modeling based on the physics of atomistic details and explicit electronic structure is ideally suited to enabling this connection of spectra to structure\, since the connection in modeling is unambiguous while the experiment provides a strong constraint on the validity of the model. In this presentation\, I will discuss examples of conjugated molecular material systems studied by a coordinated theoretical\, modeling\, and experimental approach that elucidates both atomistic and electronic structure and dynamics in a way inaccessible to either theory or experiment alone. \n  \nNetworking reception with light refreshments to follow. \n  \n  \nPeter J.
