  • Dean Waldow's Research Group Waldow Group Research Projects Our group has a number of research directions broadly focused in the study of macromolecules.  The largest effort has been involved in the compatibilization of polymer blends with added copolymers both in the bulk and as a thin film. Other areas include the study of organic photovoltaic thin films, local segmental dynamics of copolymers in dilute solution, and the application of various synthetic technique to design and build specialty

  • at the Joint Institute of Neutron Science collaborating with Dr. Mark Dadmun of the University of Tennessee – Knoxville studying neutron scattering of polymer-based thermoelectrics and conducting polymers in solution. At PLU, my research group  studies a variety of topics in the polymer field including polymer dynamics, thin polymer films, compatibilization of polymer blends, and more recently organic photovoltaics (OPV). We utilize a variety of techniques including atomic force microscopy, light
