Meet the Physics Faculty
Thomas Moses, ChairProfessor of Physics
Ph.D., University of California-Berkeley, 1993
"With the help of Knox students, I am using a variety of techniques-evanescent-wave ellipsometry, magnetic and electric field-induced birefringence, and light scattering-to probe the molecular ordering near surfaces and fluctuations in bulk samples."
Charles SchulzProfessor of Physics
Ph.D., University of Illinois, 1979
"My research is in molecular biophysics, an area that overlaps physics, chemistry and biology. I am interested in structure/function relations in the metal centers of metalloproteins."
Mark ShroyerAssociate Professor of Physics
Ph.D., Oregon State University, 1999
"My research involves the study of molecular magnetism. Working closely with Knox students and using a SQUID susceptometer, we investigate the magnetic interactions between metal ions in inorganic molecules."
