Amy Cordones-Hahn
Staff Scientist, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory
BioI am a staff scientist in the Stanford PULSE Institute at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, where I work in the Solution Phase Chemistry Group. I am interested in understanding the excited state processes that drive photochemical reactions of transition metal complexes relevant for solar energy conversion and catalysis. My research takes advantage of the atomic specificity of ultrafast x-ray methods at the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS), coupled with complementary ultrafast optical spectroscopy methods, to resolve the dynamics and reaction mechanisms of transition metal complexes acting as photosensitizers and photocatalysts.

James P. Cryan
Lead Scientist, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory
BioI am interested in photo-induced dynamics of atoms and molecules. I am particularly interested in the dynamics of excited states in these systems, and how energy transfer takes place inside a molecule. The relevant timescales for these interactions is typically in the range of attoseconds to picoseconds. These dynamics include photo-triggered chemistry such as non Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamics and quantum phenomena in strong-field driven systems. I also develop tools for studying these dynamics in the time domain.
My research builds on my extensive experience with ultrafast optical laser science and technology. As a graduate student at Stanford University I participated in the first experiments at the Linac Coherent Light Source, where we studied a new regime of X-ray-matter interactions. I was a postdoctoral scholar at Lawerence Berkeley National Laboratory before returning to SLAC to lead the attosecond science group.
