When Kent State student Franck Steve Guepjop Fotso was in high school in Cameroon, Africa, he and his family looked at colleges in the U.S. that had great engineering programs but found them to be quite expensive. That all changed when Guepjop Fotso ran across information about Kent State’s College of Aeronautics and Engineering (CAE). The university had an impressive engineering curriculum, which catered to his career aspirations and had a robust program for international students, all at an affordable price that would fit into his family's budget. Guepjop Fotso, now in his ...
Middle school- and high school-aged students learned about fuel cell energy, while elementary-aged school students discovered how propeller-driven vehicles operate, providing all students a first-hand look into the Kent State Tuscarawas Engineering Technology Green & Alternative Energy program and the use of alternative energy to power devices. ...
Abstract: Since Louis Pasteur, chemists have been fascinated by chirality, however its connection with electron spin was not realized until the 21st century and its implications for chemistry and biochemistry is only beginning to be revealed. I will discuss chiral induced spin selectivity (CISS), which refers to the fact that charge polarization and charge transfer in chiral molecules (and materials) is accompanied by spin polarization and spin transfer. After I introduce some of the seminal works on CISS as background, I will describe some of our recent studies that investigate the implica...
