SUMMARY:A Sense of Wonder
DESCRIPTION:The Maine Landscapes of Vincent Hartgen\, Michael Lewis\, and James Linehan\nCo-curated by Diana Baumbach (Associate Professor of Art & Director of Galleries) and James Linehan (Professor Emeritus of Art)\, A Sense of Wonder celebrates the legacy of three emeritus professors in Painting: Vincent Hartgen\, Michael Lewis\, and James Linehan. These educators shaped the Art Department and collectively provided nearly 130 years of teaching and administrative work at the University of Maine. The exhibition features landscape paintings spanning their careers. It includes key works\, as well as lesser-known paintings\, some of which are on view for the first time. A publication including essays and reproductions will be available in the gallery. \nA Sense of Wonder is made possible by Jane and Kelly Littlefield and donors to the Littlefield Gallery Sculptor-in-Residence Fund.

SUMMARY:Design of functional hybrid semiconductors and their synthesis  by solution state self-assembly
DESCRIPTION:Guest Lecture Series 2026\nDepartment of Chemistry & FIRST joint seminar\nJoin us as we welcome Robert M. Stolz\, Post-doctoral Scholar (Stanford University) \nSemiconductive materials that can form from solution by self-assembly offer unique benefits. Among the most compelling is the ability to rationally obtain new functional properties that are intrinsic to the material. Hybrid semiconductors contain both organic and inorganic components\, allowing them to access a wide range of tunable properties. I will share two examples of hybrid semiconductors that advance the design and synthesis of semiconductors from solution. In the first example I will present my work on porous semiconductive frameworks for gas phase and solution phase chemical sensing applications. I will show how surface chemistry and host-guest interactions inform the sensing mechanism and how selective chemical sensing can be achieved by controlling morphology and composition. In the second example I will share the development of new metal-halide heterostructures that can be grown as large single crystals from solution. These heterostructures can be synthesized with tunable dimensionality that modifies their optoelectronic properties. Together these projects will showcase how organic and inorganic chemical principles can combine to obtain material systems that provide fundamental insight into structure-property relationships and compelling functional properties. \nRobert began his chemical journey at Wesleyan University (CT) earning a BA and MA working with Brian Northrop developing click chemistry for the synthesis of dendritic polymers. After a brief stint in industry at Dupont and Dow Chemical companies\, he moved to Hanover to study materials chemistry at Dartmouth College (NH) with Katherine A. Mirica\, earning his PhD in 2021. His thesis focused on understanding how the surface chemistry of conductive framework materials enables them to act as transducers for gas phase and solution phase chemical sensing. After his PhD\, Robert moved to Stanford University (CA) in 2022 where he is currently a PRISM Baker Postdoctoral Fellow. His current research in halide perovskites uses small-molecule chemistry and solution-state techniques to synthesize new solid-state materials.
