Timothy W. Schmidt

Timothy W. Schmidt works in physical chemistry and photonics, studying how molecules absorb and emit light and how that light can be converted or manipulated more efficiently. Much of the recent work focuses on 'triplet fusion upconversion' and 'singlet fission' - processes that combine or split packets of light energy (photons) in ways that could improve solar cells and other light-based technologies, alongside spectroscopy of reactive molecules and crystal structure determination.

Publication output has fluctuated year to year over the last decade but remained fairly steady overall, with a notable peak in 2025 and a multi-year average of about 18 papers per year.
