About Louise
Louise’s main interests are in luminescence spectroscopy and actinide chemistry, but she also dabbles in lanthanide and d-metal/ organic chemistry in her exploration of two-photon chemistry and up-conversion. Research into actinide chemistry involves exploration of actinyl units (especially the ever-elusive uranyl(V)) and increasing understanding of the fundamental spectroscopic properties of air-sensitive actinide complexes, including uranium mono-oxo species and uranium(IV) chemistry.

Apart from the joy of seeing a nicely resolved emission spectrum, Louise enjoys hosting Zoom quizzes, avoiding changing lightbulbs and (above all) Thursday night pints.

Once again, its been too long! But we've been up to a number things in the last few months...

11-2022 Two papers from Ciarán!
Huge congratulations to Ciarán on the publication of two first author papers this month! 'Modelling Conformational Flexibility in a Spectrally Addressable Molecular Multi‐Qubit Model System' and 'Magnetic and Electronic Structural Properties of the S3 State of Nature’s Water Oxidizing Complex: A Combined Study in ELDOR-Detected Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectral Simulation and Broken-Symmetry Density Functional Theory'. 

30-09-2022 New Book Chapter!
Congratulations to Laura, Lauren and Louise on the publication of their new book chapter, 'Luminescence properties of the actinides and actinyls' for Inorganic Chemistry III. Check it out here. ​
