Carty, David - Durham University - Department of Chemistry

个人简介

David Carty carried out his undergraduate MChem degree at The University of Edinburgh where he worked on research project with Prof. Robert Donovan and graduated in 1999. He then carried out his PhD at the University of Birmingham (1999 - 2003) where he was supervised by Prof. Ian R. Sims (now at the Université de Rennes 1) and Prof. Ian W. M. Smith FRS (now Emeritus Professor at the University of Cambridge). His work focused on the kinetics of neutral gas-phase chemical reactions relevant to the interstellar medium at temperatures down to 10 K. The highlight of his PhD work was in the technically challenging study of the O + OH reaction (J. Phys. Chem. A, 2006, 110, 3101) where he ruled out the possibility of that a low rate for that reaction could explain the low observed abundance of molecular oxygen in outer space. Following his PhD, David worked as a postdoc for Prof. Gerard Meijer at the Fritz-Haber-Institut der Max-Planck-Gesellschaft in Berlin where he worked on a molecular synchrotron storage ring for neutral polar molecules (Nature Physics, 2007, 3, 115). In 2005, David moved to the University of Oxford to work as a postdoc for Prof. Tim P. Softley where he worked on Stark deceleration of neutral polar molecules for use in cold ion-molecule reactions. In Sepember 2007, David was appointed as Lecturer in a joint position between the Chemistry and Physics departments. Since then, David has attracted considerable research funding, as part of a consortium from Durham and Imperial College London, through an EPSRC Programme Grant entitled MMQA: MicroKelvin Molecules in a Quantum Array. David is a husband to Annabel and a father to Madeleine (born April 2010) and Sebastian (born April 2012).
