Scattering Expertise

Kevin has worked as a beamline scientist on the X9 beamline at NSLS, where he helped users perform a wide variety of x-ray scattering experiments (SAXS, WAXS, GISAXS, GIWAXS). Kevin has also used neutron techniques, including neutron scattering (SANS, GISANS, RSANS) and neutron reflectivity (NR).

Scientific Interests

Kevin is interested in soft materials and self-assembly. In particular, he has worked on problems in block-copolymers (fundamental physics, directed assembly, solvent annealing, etc.), organic photo-voltaics, and nanoparticle superlattices.
