An Instrument Assembly and Data Science Lab for Early Undergraduate Education
Alison Wallum,Zetai Liu,Joy J Y Lee,S. Chatterjee,Lawrence J. Tauzin,Christopher D. Barr,Christy F. Landes,Amy L. Nicely,Martin Gruebele +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors present a new lab for integration into existing courses that starts with hands-on spectrometer building, moves to data collection, and finally introduces an advanced data science technique, singular value decomposition, at an appropriate level with minimal computing requirements.

Properties of Carbon Dots versus Small Molecules from "Bottom-up" Synthesis.
Zhengyi Bian,Alison Wallum,Arshad Mehmood,Eric Gomez,Ziwen Wang,Subhendu Pandit,Shuming Nie,Stephan Link,Benjamin G Levine,Martin Gruebele +9 more
TL;DR: The synthesis of carbon dots (CDs) from benzene diamine results in the formation of small molecules rather than nanosized carbonized dots. The purified CDs do not exhibit red fluorescence.

Excited-State Imaging of Single Particles on the Subnanometer Scale.
TL;DR: Real-space imaging techniques such as using scanning tunneling microscopy tips to enhance optical measurements and electron energy-loss spectroscopy in a scanning transmission electron microscope, which is based on focused electron beams to obtain high-resolution spatial information on excited states are discussed.

A LEGO Mindstorms Brewster angle microscope
Jonathan Fernsler,Vincent Nguyen,Alison Wallum,Nicholas Benz,Matthew Hamlin,J. J. Pilgram,Hunter Vanderpoel,Ryan Lau +7 more
TL;DR: The Brewster Angle Microscope (BAM) as mentioned in this paper uses p-polarized laser light reflected off a surface at the Brewster angle, which ideally yields zero reflectivity.
