Dr. Aimée Tomlinson

All about me - Or, everything I want to tell

If you would like to know where I've worked, my awards, publications, and education this would be the place to look.

My Research

I am a physical chemist with a speciality in computational quantum theory. Sounds like a mouthful but it really means that I sit in front of a computer quite a bit and run calculations. My current interests are identifying systems for use in: organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs), organic solar cells (OSCs) and electrochromic devices.

Below are a few of my most recent publications

Wheeler, D., Diodiati, A., Tomlinson, A.L., Jeffries-EL, M. “Evaluating the Role of Molecular Heredity in the Optical and Electronic Properties of Cross-Conjugated Benzo[1,2-d:4,5-d’]bisoxazoles” ACS Omega,5, 12374-12384, DOI: 10.1021/acs.omega.0c01126.

Christiansen, D., Ohtani, S., Chujo, Tomlinson, A.L., Reynolds, J.R. “All Donor Electrochromic Polymers Spanning the Visible Spectrum Through Random Copolymerization” Chem. Mat., ASAP, Invited manuscript for a special issue honoring Jean-Luc Brédas, DOI: 10.1021/acs.chemmater.9b01293.

Christiansen, D., Tomlinson, A.L., Reynolds, J.R. “A New Design Paradigm for Color Control in Conjugated Organic Anodically Coloring Electrochomic Molecules” J. Am. Chem. Soc., 141(9), 3859-3862, DOI: 10.1021/jacs.9b01507.

Chavez, R., Diodati, L., Wheeler, D.L., Shaw, J., Tomlinson, A.L., Jeffries-EL, M. “Evaluating the Impact of Fluorination on the Electro-Optical Properties of Cross-Conjugated Benzobisoxazole,” J. Phys. Chem. A, 2019, 123(7), 1343-1352 Invited manuscript for special issue honoring William M. Jackson Festschrift, DOI: 10.1021/acs.jpca.8b07778

My Hobbies/Interests

I live with a crazy roommate & 5 dogs (1 grump old pug, 2 hot chics: Luna Bean & Ellie (aka Eleven) and 2 crazy pups: Truman & Joey)
To relax I watch bad reality TV and read just about anything that falls under the category of 'Urban Fantasy'.
I prefer to listen to a good book rather than Sirius XM.
Regardless of what I do at home - I always have the company of my fur kids - even when I shower.
