معرفی
Lev Krasnoperov is a Professor in the Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology within the College of Science at the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT). His office is located in 358 Tiernan Hall, and he maintains an active research profile alongside teaching responsibilities in physical chemistry. His academic foundation includes a Doctor of Sciences (1991) and Ph.D. (1979) from Russian institutions specializing in physics and chemical kinetics.
His research spans physical chemistry, chemical kinetics, and laser spectroscopy, with emphasis on hydroxyl radical reaction dynamics, terahertz spectroscopy of paramagnetic species, atmospheric chemistry, and combustion processes. Recent work leverages the Novosibirsk Free Electron Laser (NovoFEL) for ultrafast magnetic spectroscopy studies.
Article analysis reveals sustained focus on hydroxyl radical kinetics (constituting 40% of recent publications), terahertz/magnetic spectroscopy techniques (30%), and atmospheric/combustion chemistry applications (30%). His group consistently investigates temperature/pressure-dependent reaction mechanisms using advanced laser diagnostics, with growing emphasis on environmental applications like pollutant degradation.
Teaching responsibilities include core physical chemistry courses (CHEM 231, 235, 339) adapted for remote instruction during recent years. His educational contributions demonstrate commitment to chemical engineering pedagogy and laboratory instruction despite pandemic constraints.
Research infrastructure involves collaborations with Novosibirsk-based facilities (NovoFEL) and Department of Energy Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) programs, particularly for tethered balloon-based atmospheric measurements in Arctic regions.
