News and views from the Ruggiero #Terahertz Group at @URochesterChem, and @URChE_Dept. Follow for lots of exciting developments into #THz science!
Just published in @angew_chem. Check out this mini-review on the intersection of lattice dynamics and electronics in organic semiconducting materials. Free to read! Great teamwork from @LucaCataz @UNIMORE_univ @ULBruxelles @UofR @URochesterChem @bmpeluzo onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an…
Playing with new toys in Germany @rigaku @RigakuOxfordXRD. Looking forward to seeing some cool new crystal structures! #3DED @UofR @URochesterChem
Nice work @graeme_day @aicooper, you made it easy for me to comment on! chemistryworld.com/news/crystalgp… @ChemistryWorld
Excited to be at @BrownUniversity this week to teach a week-long high school course on terahertz science and technology! Looking forward to an exciting week full of demonstrations and quantum mechanics and lasers. @UofR @URochesterChem #THzDoesItBetter catalog.precollege.brown.edu/detail/CEEN0951
Really pleased to welcome a new member to the gang! Johanna Kölbel (Koelbel) joins @URochesterChem today by way of @BrownUniversity and @Cambridge_Uni, bringing immense expertise in #THz spectroscopy. Stay tuned for exciting developments! #THzDoesItBetter @UofR #PewPew
🎙 Meet @LucaCataz, invited speaker at ICCOSS 2025! He studies how structure and dynamics shape the properties of molecular crystals for electronics, optics, and pharma. 📍 Playa del Carmen | 🗓 July 13–18 📩 [email protected]
Can’t wait!
🎙 Meet Michael Ruggiero, invited speaker at ICCOSS 2025! He uses terahertz and low-frequency Raman spectroscopy to explore structure–dynamics relationships in molecular solids. 📍 Playa del Carmen | 🗓 July 13–18 📩 [email protected]

Just published in @JMaterChem - #THz spectroscopy identifies domains where *static* structural disorder promotes diagnostic phonons. Another example highlighting how sensitive THz methods are to subtle structural effects! @LucaCataz @UofR @URochesterChem pubs.rsc.org/en/Content/Art…
Don’t sleep on @MingooJin! Crushing the solid-state dynamics game. Can’t wait to see you soon!
🎙 Meet @MingooJin, invited speaker at ICCOSS 2025! He designs dynamic crystals with rotational and shifting motions to tune solid-state properties like optics, mechanics, and electronics. 📍 Playa del Carmen | 🗓 July 13–18 🔗Register – link in bio 📩 [email protected]
Cheers to Will Stoll, who successfully advanced to candidacy in @URochesterChem today, while studying abroad Bologna, Italy. We are very very proud of all of his accomplishments, and the support of his committee (@aet_ice and Dave McCamant). Great things coming @UofR @Unibo 🇺🇸🇮🇹
Our IRES program would be nothing without an epic team of partners and PIs. @UNIMORE_univ Profs. Piccini and Catalano (@LucaCataz); @Unibo Prof. Salzillo; @unipr Prof. Mazzeo. Great science, mentorship, and fun. @UofR @URochesterChem #THzDoesItBetter
Super fun day - such great hosting at the @polimi by Prof. Pierangelo Metrangolo that I forgot to get a picture. Also had a blast with touring the ultrafast labs with Profs. Giulio Cerullo and Eva Pogna. And of course I’ve got @LucaCataz “handling” me 🤣 #THzDoesItBetter
Fun day in the @CityRochesterNY @RCSDNYS sharing some chemistry awesomeness with 2nd graders. Big thanks to the @NSF for supporting these important efforts to engage young students in STEM. @URochesterChem @UofR #Chemistry #ChemEd
The @URochesterChem X-ray crystallography facility is growing! We are really excited about the installation of our new @rigaku powder diffraction unit. Lots of variable temperature and small/wide angle scattering possibilities in front of us. @UofR #Materials #Chemistry
Countdown to ICCOSS 2025! ✨⚛️ Just weeks away — and there's still time to join! Explore the latest in solid-state chemistry with top experts, poster sessions, and talks on crystal engineering, polymorphism, and more. 🔗 Register now (link in bio) 📩 [email protected]
Congrats to @URochesterChem PhD student Will Stoll on having his artwork featured on the most recent issue of @JCIM_JCTC @ACSPublications! Led by the great @davidemitoli, and our very own Maria Petrov’s first paper. Nice work team! #THzDoesItBetter
Congratulations to Bevan Whitehead for being a recipient of the Department of Energy Office of Science Graduate Student Research Program (SCGSR)! Get the details: sas.rochester.edu/chm/news-event…
